EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures the moment of respite for W. Phillips, a wounded sailor from the U.S.S. Memphis during the tumultuous period of the First World War. The U.S.S. Memphis, originally named USS Tennessee, was renamed in 1916. Tragically, the ship was lost off the coast of Santo Domingo later that same year, resulting in the deaths or disappearance of 43 crew members. In this image, W. Phillips is seen resting on a bed, his body bandaged and weary from the rigors of naval warfare. The tender care of a nurse, likely Martha Kuntze or Martha Ewing Newcombe, is evident as she applies fresh bandages to his injured leg. The serene expression on her face contrasts with the raw emotion and pain etched on W. Phillips's face, highlighting the dual nature of the human experience during times of conflict. This photograph, taken by Harris & Ewing, is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the brave men and women who served during the First World War. The image is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the compassionate care provided to the wounded during a time of great need. The photograph, which is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection, is a valuable historical artifact that offers a glimpse into the past and the experiences of those who lived through the tumultuous events of the early 20th century.
