EDITORS COMMENTS
Camp Meade #2 - Drafted Men Leaving For Camp Meade, 1917" is a poignant photograph captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio. The image documents the departure of a group of drafted men, dressed in suits and carrying their belongings, as they prepare to embark on their journey to Camp Meade in Maryland for military training during World War I. The photograph captures the essence of the era, with the men exhibiting a range of emotions - some looking determined and resolute, while others display signs of apprehension and sadness. The building in the background, possibly a train station or assembly hall, serves as a backdrop to this significant moment in their lives. The Harris & Ewing studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1896, was a leading photography studio in Washington D.C. during the early 20th century. The studio's collection includes an extensive array of glass negatives, many of which document the social and political history of the United States. This particular photograph, taken in 1917, captures the impact of conscription on the lives of ordinary Americans during a time of war. The image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by these men and their families during a pivotal moment in American history. The photograph's timeless quality and the raw emotion it conveys make it a valuable addition to any historical collection.
