EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "U.S. Army - Motorized Anti-Aircraft Battery, 1910" by Harris & Ewing, offers a fascinating glimpse into the early days of military innovation and diversity. The image showcases a group of soldiers from the United States Army's Motorized Anti-Aircraft Battery, assembled around a Cadillac automobile. The soldiers, a mix of African American and Caucasian men and boys, are dressed in their military uniforms, with some donning caps adorned with insignia. The scene is set against the backdrop of American flags and banners, as the soldiers inspect and prepare their anti-aircraft guns. The presence of the Cadillacs suggests that this battery was one of the first to be motorized, a significant advancement in military technology at the time. The photograph, taken in the early 1910s, is a testament to the evolution of military communication and transportation. It also highlights the diversity of the armed forces, reflecting the integration of African American soldiers into the United States Army. This image, part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, is a valuable historical artifact that showcases the country's military heritage and the progression of military technology during the 20th century. The photographers, George W. Harris and Martha Ewing, captured this moment in time with exceptional skill and attention to detail, making it an essential addition to any collection of American history or military memorabilia.
