Camp Meade #2, Maryland, 1917: A Snapshot of Army Life during the First World War This photograph, titled "Camp Meade #2, Maryland, 1917," captures a moment in time during the early stages of the United States' involvement in the First World War. Taken by the renowned photographic studio of Harris & Ewing, this image offers a glimpse into the daily life of soldiers at the Camp Meade army base in Maryland. The photograph shows a group of men standing in front of a newly constructed barracks building. The men, dressed in their military uniforms, appear to be taking a break from their duties, engaging in casual conversation with one another. The barracks, still under construction, are made of wood and brick, with scaffolding and construction materials visible in the background. The scene is set against the vast, open landscape of Camp Meade, with trees and grassy fields stretching out in the distance. The photograph is a testament to the industrious spirit of the era, as the United States mobilized its resources to build and train its armed forces in preparation for the war effort. The photograph was taken by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing of Harris & Ewing Photographic Studio, a prominent Washington, D.C.-based studio that documented the country's history during the early 20th century. This image is part of the Harris Ewing Collection, which is held by the Library of Congress. The collection includes over 40,000 glass negatives, providing a rich visual record of American life during the 1910s and beyond. This photograph offers a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women who served during the First World War, as well as the industrial might and determination that helped shape the United States during this pivotal period in history.
