EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the USS Rhode Island (BB-17) anchored in Gatun Lake, Panama, circa 1915. The Rhode Island was a pre-dreadnought battleship of the United States Navy, named after the 13th state and the site of the famous colonial battle. The ship played a significant role in the construction of the Panama Canal, transporting vital supplies and personnel between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The Panama Canal, an engineering marvel of the modern world, was undergoing its final stages of completion during this period. The canal, which cuts through the Isthmus of Panama, connects the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, reducing the distance and time required for ships to travel between the two bodies of water. The canal was a strategic priority for the United States, as it allowed for the uninterrupted movement of naval forces between the two oceans. The USS Rhode Island, with its imposing presence, is anchored in the tranquil waters of Gatun Lake, which is formed by the Chagres River and the Gatun Dam. The lake, which is an essential component of the canal system, serves as a crucial transit point for ships, allowing them to navigate the canal's locks and continue their journey to their respective destinations. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of the Panama Canal and the vital role that the United States Navy played in its construction. The USS Rhode Island, with its proud banner flying high, stands as a testament to the ingenuity and determination of the men and women who made the construction of the canal a reality. This image is a fascinating reminder of a bygone era, when the world was being connected in new and extraordinary ways.
