EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: "Camp McKibbin, Marshall Hall - A Glimpse into African American Military Life in 1893". This print captures the essence of Camp McKibbin, Marshall Hall's Advanced Party in Maryland during 1893. The image showcases a diverse group of soldiers from the United States Army, both African American and Caucasian, standing together as a united force. The men are dressed in their military uniforms, each displaying their own unique style with pith helmets adorning their heads. Their attire reflects the fashion clothing of the late 19th century, while their serious expressions reveal their dedication to duty. In this still image frozen in time by an unknown creator from the Brady Handy Collection at the Library of Congress, we see these brave soldiers equipped with various tools and supplies essential for survival on the battlefield. An axe leans against one man's shoulder while another holds a broom symbolizing cleanliness within camp life. This photograph offers us a rare glimpse into an era when African Americans served alongside their fellow countrymen despite facing racial discrimination. It serves as a testament to their resilience and determination to protect and serve America. As we reflect upon this powerful historical moment captured over a century ago, let us honor these unsung heroes who paved the way for future generations through their unwavering commitment to duty and sacrifice.
