Description: An original 6x5" vintage photo from a large collection of American Expeditionary Force (AEF) photos we acquired from the estate of a collector. Photos of this set are almost all labelled "US OFFICIAL", indicating that the U.S. Signal Corps is the most likely origin. Photo is extremely rare. Professionally packaged in a rigid mailer for safe delivery.Photo OverviewThis photo depicts a scene with American soldiers saluting a color guard, carrying the U.S. flag. The soldiers are wearing World War I-era uniforms, suggesting this image was taken during or shortly after the war. The setting appears to be a rural area with several small buildings in the background, possibly a military training camp or parade ground. There are no identifiable individuals or specific landmarks visible in the image.The image likely captures a moment of military ceremony or training exercise reflecting the traditions and discipline of American forces in the early 20th century. Such ceremonies were vital for morale and unit cohesion and were common in both training and active service areas. The presence of the flag points to ceremonial significance, emphasizing patriotism and unity during a pivotal time in U.S. military history.Text Present```351062```Condition: Good to fair vintage condition. This antique photo is on extremely old, somewhat fragile paper, and likely has age spots, tears, surface flaking, or other age related blemishes. Please see photos for detailed scans of both sides.
