EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the spirit and determination of drafted U.S. Army recruits marching near the Washington Square Arch in New York City on September 4, 1917. Known as "Boyce's Tigers," these men were part of the 27th Division during World War I.
The image showcases a group of young men, filled with patriotism and bravery, as they make their way through the streets towards their training camp. The architectural beauty of the archway serves as a poignant backdrop to this historic moment in American history.
George Graham Bain, a renowned photographer for Bain News Service, expertly captured this snapshot in time that symbolizes sacrifice and duty to one's country. The faces of these soldiers tell stories of courage and resilience as they prepare to serve on the front lines.
As we look back at this photograph over a century later, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by those who served in World War I. Their legacy lives on through images like this one, preserving their memory for future generations to honor and remember.
This print is not just a historical artifact but a testament to the strength and unity that defined America during one of its most challenging times.
