A lieutenant standing with his class is the subject here, though the record does not say which school or unit the group belonged to. The caption comes from the Bain News Service, the New York photo agency that George Grantham Bain founded around 1899 to sell news pictures to newspapers. Its glass negatives, many of them shot for quick publication, document American public life in the early twentieth century. The title is unverified, so the names and setting are worth checking against other sources before you rely on them.
