I find it
amazing that this photo below,
taken so many years ago,
actually
still exists!
And now, someone has put it online for all of us to see.
This
INCREDIBLE picture was taken in 1918.
It is
18,000 men
preparing for war in a training camp at Camp Dodge,
in Iowa.
EIGHTEEN THOUSAND MEN!!
What a
priceless gift from our grandfathers!
