EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures a pivotal moment during a Marine Corps, U.S.N. Machine Gun Unit Demonstration at Ball Park in 1917. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, showcases General George Barnett (right), Commandant of the Marine Corps, observing the demonstration alongside Daniels (left), likely a high-ranking Marine officer. The Marine Corps was at the forefront of naval warfare during this era, and this demonstration served as a showcase of their advanced military capabilities. The Marines are seen dressed in their official uniforms, with their machine guns at the ready, as they demonstrate their proficiency and accuracy to an attentive audience of spectators. The image offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a unique insight into military fashion, the role of women and men in the armed forces, and the importance of military demonstrations during a time of war. This photograph is part of the extensive Harris Ewing Collection held at the Library of Congress, and serves as an invaluable historical record of the United States Navy and Marine Corps during the early 20th century.
