EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the U.S.S. Brooklyn in the late 19th century, with a marine guard company engaged in drill activities on board. The U.S.S. Brooklyn was a cruiser of the Brooklyn class, commissioned in 1897, and was one of the most advanced warships of its time. The image, taken by an unknown photographer, shows the crew in focused attention as they go through their paces, with their commanding officer, likely identified by the distinctive hat and white gloves, inspecting their progress. The men, dressed in their uniforms and carrying their weapons, appear serious and disciplined, reflecting the importance of training and readiness in the United States Navy during this era. The photograph, a dry plate glass negative measuring 8 x 10 inches, is part of the extensive collection of the Library of Congress, providing a unique glimpse into the daily life of a naval vessel during the late 19th century. The U.S.S. Brooklyn played a significant role in the Spanish-American War, and this photograph offers a fascinating insight into the lives of the men who manned this powerful warship.
