Abstract:
Artificial collection of panoramic photographs of various units taken during the interwar period between 1920 and 1940. These photographs depict mainly military units and also include four images of Civilian Conservation Corps units. Of interest are several photographs related to the 15th United States Infantry Regiment stationed in Tientsin, China in the 1930's. Many of the images taken in 1920, particularly those of Separation Companies, are likely World War I troops returning home after their service. Images from 1939 and 1940 feature units that had begun training before the United States entered into World War II. These photographs feature both Camp Douglas and Camp McCoy in Wisconsin, the training camps for the National Guard between the two World Wars.

Biography/History

This is an artificial collection of panoramic photograph, including images separated out from Wisconsin Veterans Museum archival collections and images from the GAR Memorial Hall. The panoramic photograph collection has been separated into seven collections: Pre-World War I, World War I, Interwar, World War II, Post-World War II, Veterans Organizations and Camps and Locations.

Scope and Content Note

Photographs in this collection cover the years between the two world wars between the years of 1920 and 1940.

These images have been arranged by unit type and then numerically within each unit type. Included are images of National Guard regiments, separation units of soldiers returning from World War I, training units and Civilian Conservation Corps camps. Many of these images feature camps in Wisconsin, both Camp Douglas and Camp McCoy, and most of these units are National Guard.

Due to the varying sizes of panoramic photographs, images of a single unit may be present in several boxes or folders.
