Description
Scarce original vintage photograph of a group World War l soldiers observing the test firing of a field artillery piece at the Aberdeen Proving Ground.The Aberdeen Proving Ground is an Army post located on 72,500 acres in Harford County, Maryland. Created and opened in 1917, APG is the Army's oldest active proving ground and was originally used as a center to test military equipment. The installation's location was chosen due to its closeness to industrial areas. Training for ordnance, or military artillery, started in 1918. Because of that training and research, APG is known as the "Home of Ordnance."
Photograph measures 6 1/2 x 8 1/2 inches and is in excellent condition with no bends, tears, or creases and is very sharp and has strong tones with great contrast and clarity.
