Taken at Fort Hamilton, the Army post guarding the Narrows at the entrance to New York Harbor in Brooklyn, this view shows soldiers of Company A at the kitchen in June 1908. Press photographers of that era often documented daily routines at military posts, and scenes like this offer a glimpse of how garrison life was organized. The glass negative is part of George Grantham Bain's collection, and its title comes from unverified notes made by the Bain News Service, so the exact unit and setting are best read as the agency's description.
