EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of preparations for the First World War in the United States, as volunteers arrive at the Plattsburg camp in Clinton County, New York, in 1917. The image, titled "L'Avant-Guerre aux Etats-Unis; Le mouvement national aux Etats-Unis en 1915: distribution...1917" (Preparations for the First World War - distribution of equipment to volunteers at the Plattsburg camp), is taken from "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 1" published by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The photograph shows a group of soldiers, dressed in uniforms, standing near crates filled with military equipment. The men, some of whom are carrying guns, appear focused and determined as they prepare to receive their supplies. The scene exudes a sense of urgency and organization, as the logistical efforts required to equip and mobilize an army are on full display. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the role the United States played in the First World War, which saw the country's armed forces grow from a small, largely volunteer army to a global military power. The image also speaks to the concept of national unity and the sacrifices made by individuals for the greater good during a time of war. The photograph, created by Underwood & Underwood, is a valuable historical document that offers insight into the preparations for the United States' entry into the First World War and the role of the volunteer army in the conflict. The photograph is a testament to the power of images to capture history and transport us back in time.
