Visitors to camp.

[Robert Gray]

Two views of families visiting camp. The young boy with the forage cap, the flag and several others appear in both photographs. What a pity we don't have more information about these images. Both are from the National Archives.

Nice images with some interesting details.

That first one was almost too clear that it made me do a double take, thought it might have been an edited living history photo.

Some are incredibly clear. Someone, somewhere would look at this image and say ' Wait a minute, doesn't that look like the photo of your mother gave you? Your great great grandfather Smith-Jones? Second from right in the door. We should tell someone. '

Is it Alexandria, the convalescent camp? A few others from there, maybe the photographer caught quite a few groups that day.
