Camp Meade, Maryland, 1917: A Glimpse into Army Life during the First World War This evocative photograph, titled "Camp Meade, Maryland - Misc, Views, 1917," offers a fascinating glimpse into the daily life of soldiers during the First World War. Taken by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, this image captures the interior of a camp kitchen at Fort Meade, Maryland. The scene is bustling with activity as men in uniforms, some wearing chef's hats and aprons, work diligently to prepare meals for the troops. A large cooking pot sits atop a roaring fire, while other pots and pans are arranged on the nearby table. A man, perhaps the camp's head chef, checks on a simmering stew, while another man stirs a pot with a long wooden spoon. The photograph also reveals the domestic side of army life, with a glass-fronted cabinet displaying dishes and utensils, and a table set with plates, cups, and silverware. The presence of a cookbook on the table suggests that these soldiers were not only skilled in the art of cooking but also valued the importance of a well-prepared meal. The photograph is part of the extensive Harris Ewing Collection, housed at the Library of Congress. The collection, which includes over 40,000 glass negatives, provides a rich visual record of American life during the early 20th century. This image, in particular, offers a unique perspective on the daily routines and experiences of the soldiers who served their country during the First World War.
