EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Siege battery drill, fixing sights, West Point, N.Y. c1905," transports us back in time to the early 1900s at the United States Military Academy in West Point, New York. The image showcases a group of dedicated students engaged in an intensive siege battery drill, focusing intently on adjusting the sights of their cannons. West Point, a prestigious military academy and historic site, is prominently displayed in the background, its architectural grandeur highlighted by the crisp autumn leaves that blanket the ground. The academy's impressive buildings, including the Keystone Arch and the Old Cadet Chapel, stand tall against the clear blue sky, reflecting the rich heritage and history of the United States. The students, dressed in their military uniforms, are fully immersed in their training, showcasing the importance of military discipline and precision. The dry plate negative or glass negative technique used to capture this moment in time adds an authentic and timeless quality to the photograph. As a significant educational institution, West Point has played a pivotal role in shaping the lives of countless military leaders throughout American history. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating insight into the military training that took place on its historic grounds over a century ago.
