EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1902, captures a unique moment in the history of the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. The image shows a group of cadets going aboard a training submarine, marking one of the earliest records of submarine training in the U.S. Navy. The U.S. Naval Academy, founded in 1845, is a prestigious institution that has been shaping the country's military leaders for over a century and a half. In this photograph, we see the cadets in their formal uniforms, carrying their gear as they prepare to embark on a submarine training course. The submarine, a testament to the advancing technology of the time, is docked at the academy's pier, displaying the American flag and other national ensigns. The photograph offers a glimpse into the early days of submarine warfare in the United States Navy, a critical component of naval warfare that would come to play a significant role in the country's defense strategy. The image also highlights the importance of education and training in the military, as the cadets learn the skills necessary to operate these advanced underwater vessels. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a prolific photographer known for her documentation of American heritage sites, captured this image as part of her extensive body of work. The photograph is now held in the Library of Congress, a testament to the historical significance of this moment in the U.S. Naval Academy's history.
