EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "U.S. Army Inspection, 1910" by Harris & Ewing, captures the essence of military discipline and readiness during an era of significant transformation for the United States Army. The image portrays a soldier in full uniform, standing at attention with a rifle slung over his shoulder, a knapsack and water bottle at his feet. The soldier's attire includes a puttee-wrapped leg, a peaked cap, and a heavy-duty tunic and trousers, all typical of the early 20th century military uniform. The photograph was taken during an army inspection, likely at a training camp or base, and the soldier's focused expression and meticulously arranged equipment suggest that he is preparing for deployment. The image offers a glimpse into the daily life and routine of soldiers during this period, as well as the importance of organization, precision, and adherence to regulations. The photograph is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection, held at the Library of Congress, which includes over 20,000 glass negatives produced by the Washington, D.C.-based photographic studio. The studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1896, was a prominent provider of visual documentation for various government agencies, including the U.S. Army. This photograph, in particular, offers a valuable historical record of military life during the early 1910s, a time of significant expansion and modernization for the U.S. Army.
