EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1870s, where we find ourselves standing in the Fort Abraham Lincoln graveyard in North Dakota. The solemnity of this scene is palpable as we gaze upon the final resting place of soldiers who tragically succumbed to freezing temperatures or typhoid fever during their service at this historic fort. The image transports us to a time when America was still forging its path across the vast western frontier. It serves as a poignant reminder of the hardships faced by those brave men who fought on these plains, enduring extreme weather conditions and battling diseases that claimed many lives. Each headstone tells a story of sacrifice and dedication, representing an important chapter in American military history. As we reflect on this vintage photograph, it becomes clear that these soldiers played a crucial role in shaping our nation's destiny. Fort Abraham Lincoln State Park stands today as a memorial to these fallen heroes and offers visitors an opportunity to explore this significant historic site. This replica cemetery within the park pays homage to those who froze or fell victim to typhoid fever while serving their country. Through this powerful image, we are reminded not only of the harsh realities faced by early settlers but also of our duty to honor and remember those who came before us.
