EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "American University Training Camp - Engineers From Training Camp On Potomac, 1917," captures a group of engineers in action during their training camp along the serene shores of the Potomac River. The image, created by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, showcases the determination and focus of these men as they row their boats against the backdrop of a picturesque winter landscape. During the early 20th century, as the United States prepared to enter the First World War, American universities played a crucial role in training the next generation of engineers and soldiers. American University, located in Washington D.C., was one such institution that contributed significantly to this effort. In this photograph, we see a group of engineers from the university's training camp, bundled up against the cold, taking a break from their studies to practice their rowing skills on the icy Potomac. The photograph, which is part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past. The men, dressed in heavy coats and hats, are shown rowing in pairs, their oars dipping in and out of the water with precision. The scene is completed by the snow-covered banks of the river and the distant trees, adding to the sense of tranquility and focus. This photograph is a testament to the spirit of determination and resilience that characterized the American response to the challenges of the First World War. It also serves as a reminder of the important role that education and training played in preparing the country for the demands of modern warfare.
