This powerful print captures a significant moment in American history - U.S. Marines departing for World War I on June 28, 1917. The image shows the soldiers boarding a transport ship at a U.S. port, ready to serve their country during a time of war.
The photographer, George Graham Bain of the Bain News Service, skillfully documents this historic event with precision and clarity. The stark contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the scene, emphasizing the solemnity of the occasion.
As we gaze upon these brave men preparing to embark on their journey into unknown territory, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by those who have served in our armed forces throughout history. Their courage and dedication to duty are evident in their stoic expressions as they stand tall and proud before setting sail for battle.
This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the hardships faced by those who have fought for our freedom, highlighting the importance of honoring their service and sacrifice. It is a timeless tribute to all those who have answered the call to defend our nation in times of need.
