1898List319Massachusetts 1898. The 2nd Massachusetts Volunteers mustered into service in May 1898 and within a month saw significant action in Cuba at the Battle of El Caney. They were one of three volunteer units from Massachusetts to see action on the Santiago Campaign. The regiment was inexperienced - 55% were untrained recruits. The lack of experience combined with their rifles giving off a very visible black smoke led to a heavy casualties in the Battle of El Caney. After an encampment near Santiago de Cuba in which a large number of the soldiers became ill with disease - estimates are as high as 65% - the regiment returned home in August. Historians have noted that soldier demographics changed considerably from the Civil War to the Spanish American war as the smaller number of troops and the lack of a draft led to a more enthusiastic army with higher morale. <br /> <br /> The photographs in this group are interesting as a typological grouping of images of untrained soldiers and also for their historical value as most contain identifications to versos. The highlight of the group is forty-four uniformly mounted portraits of soldiers nearly all identified measuring 3 ¾ x 2 ½ inches each. Other photographs include a large portrait of Captain Frederick E. Pierce with the blindstamp of Goldsmith Studio Springfield Massachusetts and a 3 ¼ x 3 ¼ inch square card of Capt. Pierce in Camp Turner. Also included are two slightly larger photographs on similar mounts. <br /> <br /> Overall an interesting group. Good condition overall with assorted chips and wear. unknown

1945232061945. Capra Frank. Japanese-Americans a 1945 wartime military screen magazine segment film reel highlighting Japanese American service in the U.S. Army's information and morale boosting film distributions during the final year of World War II. Produced for exhibition to servicemen as part of Army-Navy Screen Magazine No. 45 the segment is also an example of the wartime contributions of legendary Italian-American filmmaker Frank Capra one of Hollywood's most influential directors best known for It Happened One Night Mr. Smith Goes to Washington and It's a Wonderful Life. During World War II Capra became a major figure in official U.S. military filmmaking directing or supervising films that translated government policy and Allied war aims into accessible emotionally forceful cinema for soldiers and civilians. Here his Army film work presents Nisei troops not as an isolated human-interest subject but as participants in a broader program joining military projection democratic rhetoric and controlled public acknowledgment of Japanese American loyalty after mass incarceration. The film's focus on the 100th Infantry Battalion the 442nd Regimental Combat Team battlefield casualties and a widow receiving the Silver Star shows how Capra's wartime production apparatus helped frame Japanese American military service for uniformed audiences in 1945.<br /> <br /> Capra Frank producer. Japanese-Americans. Segment from Army-Navy Screen Magazine No. 45. U.S. Army Signal Corps Army Pictorial Service 1945. Black and white sound film reel 16mm. Present on a large reel in metal can the lid handwritten in grease pencil "ARMY/NAVY SCREEN MAG." and "NO #45." The identified segment shows a spokesman in Hawaii praising Japanese Americans in the U.S. Army a war widow receiving a Silver Star scenes of Nisei troops in the Italian campaign the 100th Infantry Battalion entering Livorno wounded men being evacuated and General Mark Clark citing soldiers of the 34th Infantry Division. The physical reel remains tightly wound; the present housing and handwritten can notation directly support identification to issue no. 45.<br /> <br /> Issued at a time when Japanese Americans were serving in segregated units even as many of their families remained confined under wartime exclusion policy the segment shows how Capra's Army film production participated in reconciling racial tension and patriotic messaging to American servicemen. Japanese American servicemen are honored here as heroes and patriots. Light wear and dust to can; reel housed and tightly wound; surface inspection only. A strong piece of World War II military film notable both for its Japanese American subject matter and as a sample of Frank Capra's influential wartime propaganda work for the U.S. Army. unknown
