EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Physical examination for U. S. army, 1917" captures a significant moment in American history during the First World War. Taken by Harris & Ewing in the early twentieth century, this image showcases the rigorous process of recruiting soldiers for service. In this powerful snapshot, we see a group of men lined up to undergo physical examinations. Clad in military uniforms and standing tall with patriotic determination, these recruits are measured and assessed by medical professionals using measuring tapes. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation as each man's physique is meticulously examined to determine their fitness for duty. The photo reflects the spirit of patriotism that swept across America after declaring war on Germany in April 1917. It serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by countless individuals who answered their country's call to serve during this tumultuous time. With its monochromatic aesthetic and attention to detail, this image transports us back to an era when young men eagerly stepped forward to defend their nation. It encapsulates both the physical demands placed upon soldiers and the dedication they displayed towards protecting their homeland. As we gaze upon this historic photograph from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of the bravery and resilience exhibited by those who served in World War I – a testament to their unwavering commitment to duty and love for their country.
