EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of naval life during the late 19th century, as three young buglers and a drummer of the U.S.S. Massachusetts stand proudly on the ship's deck between 1896 and 1901. Dressed in their formal naval uniforms, complete with sailor suits and tall, shiny hats, they exude a sense of discipline and camaraderie. The buglers hold their instruments at the ready, their faces focused and determined, while the drummer strikes a confident pose, his drum neatly positioned beside him. The background shows the vast expanse of the ocean, with other ships and the open sky beyond, emphasizing the isolation and solitude of life at sea. This glass negative photograph, taken during the pre-Dreadnought era, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the daily life of sailors during a time of naval warfare and exploration. The photograph is a valuable historical artifact, now preserved in the Library of Congress, and serves as a reminder of the rich naval heritage of the United States.
