EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history at the Barnard Canteen in 1918 or 1919. Soldiers are seated around a table inside the Columbia University Gould Boathouse, located on 115th and Riverside Drive in New York City. This canteen was set up by Barnard College to provide a warm and welcoming space for soldiers passing through the city on their way home from World War I.
The image showcases the camaraderie among these servicemen as they enjoy a meal together in this temporary haven. The men are dressed in military uniforms, embodying the spirit of patriotism and sacrifice that defined this era. The vintage furniture and decor add to the nostalgic charm of the scene, transporting viewers back to a time when America was united in its support for those who served.
As we reflect on this poignant snapshot of history, we are reminded of the resilience and strength displayed by our armed forces during times of conflict. This photo serves as a tribute to all those who have bravely served their country, both then and now. It is a reminder of the sacrifices made by so many for the freedoms we enjoy today.
