EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph captures a unique moment in the history of the USS New York during the anniversary commemoration of the Battle of Santiago de Cuba on July 3, 1899. The image, which is believed to be a dry plate glass negative, measures 8 x 10 inches, and its creator remains unknown. The USS New York, a cruiser of the United States Navy, is prominently displayed in the foreground, with several crewmen and sailors gathered around it. The scene is particularly noteworthy for the three-legged race taking place on the deck of the ship. The men, dressed in their naval uniforms, appear to be in high spirits as they compete in this unconventional race, adding a lighthearted touch to the historic occasion. The Battle of Santiago de Cuba was a significant victory for the United States during the Spanish-American War, and the anniversary was celebrated with great fanfare in the naval community. This photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the daily life and camaraderie of the crew aboard the USS New York during this period.
