Drill formations at Camp Walker in the Philippine Islands are the focus of this stereograph, which its caption assigns to the 24th U.S. Infantry. The regiment was among the American units stationed in the islands in the years after the Philippine-American War, when U.S. forces were helping maintain order while the territory came under American administration. Stereo cards like this one were issued by commercial publishers and viewed through a hand stereoscope, giving viewers at home a three-dimensional look at distant places. The record notes that its caption data is unverified, so the date and unit should be checked against other sources.
