EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures a moment during a bayonet drill on board the U.S.S. Brooklyn, a cruiser of the United States Navy, in the late 19th century. The image, which is believed to have been taken around 1897, shows a group of Marines, dressed in their full uniforms, intently focused on their instructor as they practice their bayonet techniques. The Marines, who served as the ship's guard, are seen standing in a row, each holding their rifles with fixed bayonets. The ship's crew, dressed in their naval uniforms, can be seen in the background, observing the drill or going about their duties. The photograph, which is a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, was taken by an unknown photographer and is now part of the collections of the Library of Congress. The U.S.S. Brooklyn was a protected cruiser, built in the late 1890s, and saw action in the Spanish-American War. This photograph provides a unique glimpse into the daily life and military training of the sailors and Marines of the late 19th century United States Navy.
