EDITORS COMMENTS
**"A Leader in Chaumont: Brigadier General Samuel Dickerson Rockenback (Rockenbach), September 5, 1918"**
In this striking photograph, taken on September 5, 1918, Brigadier General Samuel Dickerson Rockenback (1869-1952) sits comfortably at his headquarters in Chaumont, France. As Chief of Tank Corps for General Headquarters during World War I, Rockenbach played a crucial role in the Allied effort.
Dressed in full military uniform with medals and insignia reflecting his rank and accomplishments, Rockenbach exudes confidence and authority as he gazes directly into the camera lens. His expression is one of quiet determination, underscoring the gravity of his responsibilities during this pivotal moment in history.
This photograph was taken by Bain News Service, a pioneering press photography agency that captured iconic images from around the world during World War I. The image has been preserved as part of the Library of Congress's Heritage Images collection, providing a unique glimpse into the life and times of one of America's most distinguished military leaders.
