EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the moment of a volley firing drill at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, between 1890 and 1901. The image, which measures 8 x 10 inches, showcases a group of young men in military uniforms, standing at attention and preparing to fire their guns in unison. The drill takes place on the academy's campus, with the bandstand and other buildings visible in the background. The photograph is a testament to the rigorous military training that was an integral part of the education received at the Naval Academy during this period. The cadets, with determined expressions on their faces, hold their guns at the ready, poised to execute the drill with precision. The use of a dry plate negative or glass negative process adds to the historical authenticity of the image, transporting us back in time to the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The United States Naval Academy, founded in 1845, is a prestigious educational institution that has produced generations of naval officers and leaders. The academy's commitment to military excellence and academic rigor is evident in this photograph, which showcases the dedication and discipline of its students. The photograph is part of the vast collection of historical images at the Library of Congress, a testament to the rich heritage and history of the United States Navy and its role in the country's military and educational institutions.
