Labeled as a parade of the 308th, this image most likely shows the 308th Infantry Regiment, a New York unit of the 77th Division that was organized at Camp Upton on Long Island during the First World War. The record gives no date, and the caption information attached to the Bain News Service negatives is unverified, so the exact occasion is uncertain. Bain's studio covered New York street life for decades, and parades of military units were frequent subjects, so the picture is worth viewing as a record of how such marches were photographed for the press.
