Arrival Arriving Cold Expeditionary Intervention Logan Siberia Vladivostok 1919
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the arrival of the USAT Logan in Vladivostok Harbour during the Western Intervention in the Russian Civil War. Dated circa 1918-1919, the image presents a stark contrast of the modern US Army Transport ship against the backdrop of the icy Russian coastline. The Logan, a key component of the American Expeditionary Force (AEF) in Siberia, had sailed across the Pacific Ocean to provide support to the Czechoslovak Legion and other anti-Bolshevik forces in Eastern Russia. As the ship navigated through the harbour, it was met with a frosty reception as the crew braced against the biting cold. The arrival of the Logan marked a significant moment in the intervention, as it brought much-needed supplies and reinforcements to the struggling anti-Bolshevik forces. The image also serves as a reminder of the complex geopolitical landscape of the early 20th century, as the US and other Western powers sought to exert influence in the aftermath of the Russian Revolution. With its rich historical significance, this photograph is an invaluable addition to any collection focusing on the Russian Civil War, US military history, or the broader context of global politics during this period.
