EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dating back to 1898, captures a group of petty officers aboard the U.S.S. Free Lance during the Spanish-American War. The U.S.S. Free Lance was a patrol vessel that saw action in the Caribbean Sea, contributing to the United States' naval victory in the conflict. The petty officers, dressed in their full uniforms, stand proudly on the deck of the ship, with the American flag prominently displayed in the background. The men wear traditional sailor suits, complete with high collars, long sleeves, and trousers, accented by their distinctive hats adorned with a star and stripes. The image, which measures 8 x 10 inches, was likely taken using a dry plate or glass negative process, a common photographic technique of the time. The photograph is a testament to the patriotism and dedication of the American sailors during the Spanish-American War, and serves as an important historical record of this period in naval warfare. This image is part of the collections of the Library of Congress, and is a valuable addition to any collection focusing on American history, naval history, or fashion clothing of the 19th century.
