Memorial Day Review in front of the Headquarters building at the Santa Monica Soldiers' Home, ca.1905

Photograph of a Memorial Day Review in front of the Headquarters building at the Santa Monica Soldiers' Home, ca.1905. There is a long formation of soldiers lined up on the right side of the image; they are all dressed in simple uniforms and forage caps. There is a color guard detachment on the left side of the picture, seen with an American flag. There is another American flag in the background, hung at half-mast on a pole around which a crowd has gathered. The headquarters building is visible in the background, flanked by tall trees.

此照片拍摄于约1905年，记录了圣莫尼卡军人之家总部大楼前举办的阵亡将士纪念日阅兵活动。画面右侧排列着一长列士兵，全员身着简易制服，头戴野战帽（forage caps）；画面左侧设有护旗分遣队，手持美国国旗。背景中另有一面美国国旗，以半旗姿态悬挂于旗杆之上，杆周聚集了大量民众。背景处可见总部大楼，两侧环绕着高大乔木。
