EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia photograph, titled "Infantry Drill, c. 1870" captures a significant moment in American military history. Taken by an anonymous American photographer during the 19th century, this print showcases cadets lined up on a parade ground at the training grounds in Annapolis, Maryland. The image portrays a sense of discipline and unity as the cadets stand tall in their military uniforms, reminiscent of those seen in another print from that era. On the right-hand side of the photograph stands a military band, adding to the grandeur and solemnity of the scene. As we delve into this snapshot from America's past, we are transported to a time when these young men were preparing themselves for future service in the armed forces. The significance of their training is palpable through their focused expressions and precise formations. This photograph not only offers us a glimpse into historical military practices but also serves as a testament to American patriotism and dedication to national defense. It reminds us of our country's rich heritage and its commitment to shaping disciplined individuals who would go on to serve with honor. Preserved within the Gilder Lehrman Collection at New York's eGilder Lehrman Institute of American History, this remarkable image allows us to reflect upon our nation's past while honoring those who have dedicated themselves to protecting it.
