    9th Corps Embarking for Fort Monroe 1863

    Thought this was an interesting image.

    Caption from the LOC website:
    Aquia Creek Landing, Va. Embarkation of 9th Army Corps for Fort Monroe, February 1863



    Link to the original, download the .tiff and take a closer look. Lots of little things, like cap ventilators and a couple of smiles or smirks.
    Just a moment...
