The Fourteenth Infantry Regiment, c. 1910.

 

 

Here are three photographs of enlisted men from the US Army’s 14th Infantry Regiment, c. 1910.  The locations in which these photographs were taken are unknown, and may be different places. In the decade before World War One, the 14th Infantry was stationed at various times at several forts in the western United States, as well as in the Philippines and Alaska.
