Homer

Homer relaxing in camp in 1918. Not sure why his bunk is outside near the garbage sorting area. He waited until 1919 to send this card along to Ruth.

Motorized Artillery Section

An American artillery section somewhere in Germany after the war. The tractor is a Holt Crawler.

Herbert Albert Krueger

A card from Private Krueger of Brillion, Wisconsin to his father while on occupation duty in Germany. Curiously the card starts off Dear Father but is address to Fred Glassow. Fred is listed on Herbert's draft card as his employer. 

111th Machine Gun Battalion

Members of the 111th Machine Gun Battalion upon their return to the United States after the war. Part of the 29th Infantry Division they would have seen action during the Meuse-Argonne Offensive.

Studio Portrait

A studio portrait taken in America.

Regular Army

An infantryman with the regular army. There is no unit number is on his collar insignia so this would place this photo to before 1918.

This appears to be a group of Americans that have been assigned to dispose of a large cache of German stick grenades.

Returning Troops

Doughboys returning to America. In this case Virginia as indicated by the license plate on the car on the right.

Ralph Lush

Ralph Lush and his fellow Americans in France.

Breech Cover

A poor quality photo but one of the few I have seen where the rifles are fitted with a breech cover. This also makes the rifles difficult to identify. I believe they are M1917 Endfields.
The soldiers here are marching through an American town. They are lucky enough to have trucks to carry their packs.

22nd Infantry

A young father from the 22nd Infantry Regiment. The 22nd spent the war in home guard action. First seizing German ships in New York harbor. Company L spent some time at the Frankford Arsenal, Pennsylvania supplying guards for Cramp's Shipbuilding Company in
Philadelphia, PA and Gloucester, NJ.

Quartermaster Corps

A private in the Quartermaster Corps. Taken at the American Photo Gallery of Des Moines, Iowa. He has one overseas service chevron so this picture would have been taken after his return.

Winter in Europe

An American soldier somewhere in Europe.

Baker and March

On the left is Newton Diehl Baker, Jr., Secretary of War from 1916 to 1921. On the right is General Peyton Conway March. This picture was taken between March and June of 1917 when March had the rank of Brigadier General. He was promoted to Major General in August.

Another Army Tent Fire

"This is what is left of Corp Hummels tent after the fire. The X is me"
The tents here had electric lights as well as a stove so there were at least two possible sources of the fire.

St. Maixent, France

St. Maixent was home to the Air Service Replacement Concentration Barracks. It was the first stop for Air Service personnel arriving in France. It also housed 4 officer training schools.
Jack Landau was 22 at the time this picture was taken. He is listed as a 2nd Lieutenant, Aviation Section, Signal Reserve Corps after the war.

Camp Dix, New Jersey

There is a draft registration card for Byron Silence Walton of Philadelphia, PA. His middle name is first written as Silas. That is then crossed out and corrected with Silence. He is also listed as an Infantry Captain in the Officers Reserve Corps after the war.
A faint pencil note at the top of the card states he "Will soon follow this card".

Stanley

A different postcard recently for sale on ebay identified the child as Stanley, mascot of the 50th Infantry, age 5. The other photo featuring the same studio prop and background was taken in November of 1919 in Mayen, Germany. The soldier remains unknown.
