Motor Corps, with Major Bastedo: A Snapshot of American Military Life during World War I This evocative photograph, titled "Motor Corps, with Major Bastedo," captured between 1917 and 1919 by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe, offers a fascinating glimpse into the daily life of the United States Military during the First World War. The image features a group of soldiers, both male and female, standing at attention in front of a large sign bearing the insignia of the Motor Corps. Among them is Major Bastedo, distinguished by his rank insignia and stern expression. The soldiers are dressed in their full military uniforms, complete with helmets and leather belts, a testament to their readiness for duty. The women in the photograph are equally well-dressed in their military apparel, their uniforms tailored to accommodate their feminine figures. Their dresses, while practical, still manage to maintain a sense of elegance and style, reflecting the era's fashion sensibilities. The photograph was taken at a time when the Motor Corps played a crucial role in the war effort, transporting supplies and personnel to the front lines. The image serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women who served during this period, and the vital role the Motor Corps played in the United States' military history. This photograph, with its timeless composition and poignant subject matter, is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection and a testament to the rich historical record preserved by the Library of Congress.
