at


American Training Camps



Presented the Great War Society

Two photographers took these photos at the end of the war at American military training camps. Arthur S. Mole was a British-born commercial photographer who worked in Zion, Illinois. Mole traveled with his partner John D. Thomas from one military camp to another, posing thousands of soldiers to form gigantic patriotic symbols that they photographed from above. Thanks to member Jeff Milman for bringing these to our attention. Click here to learn more about Mole and Thomas's project.
