One Result of Abolishing the Canteen
EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Stark Consequence of Military Reform in 1907 This evocative illustration, published in Puck magazine on January 16, 1907, poignantly depicts the potential unintended consequences of a military reform: the abolition of army canteens. The image, titled "One Result of Abolishing the Canteen," portrays an intoxicated African American soldier brandishing a handgun in the middle of a chaotic street, while another soldier is being thrown out of the Red Eye Hotel. The canteen system, which allowed soldiers to purchase alcohol and other necessities from military-run establishments, was a contentious issue during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Reformers argued that the canteens contributed to soldiers' addiction and poor discipline, and advocated for their abolition. However, as this illustration suggests, the elimination of canteens may have had unintended consequences. With no regulated access to alcohol, soldiers turned to unscrupulous vendors and local establishments, leading to increased drunkenness and disorder. The scene depicted in the illustration is a stark reminder of the potential pitfalls of hasty military reforms. The illustration, with its gritty realism and social commentary, is a powerful reminder of the complexities of military life and the challenges of implementing reforms. It also underscores the importance of considering the potential consequences of policy changes, particularly those that affect the lives and wellbeing of soldiers. This image, with its historical significance and thought-provoking message, is a valuable addition to any collection or display related to military history, social reform, or the history of alcohol in America.
