    $19.95

    This photograph features Major H.H. Benham, an officer in the United States military during the late 19th to early 20th century. His uniform, carefully tailored and adorned with insignia, reflects the standards of military fashion and protocol during this period. Major Benham is a representation of the era’s military leadership, embodying the discipline and dedication expected of officers in the United States Army.

    Major H.H. Benham’s service is particularly notable for his involvement in pivotal military operations. He served during a time when the U.S. Army was evolving, transitioning from a focus on Indian Wars to engaging in overseas conflicts, including the Spanish-American War. The photo, captured by the Bain News Service, is more than just an image; its a historical artifact that gives us perspective on military life and the responsibilities placed on officers like Benham. Through his uniform and posture, we can infer the values and expectations that defined military service over a century ago.

    Photographs like this one serve as valuable records, preserving the appearance of uniforms and the structure of military ranks. They offer a glimpse into the historical context of military service, showcasing the equipment, attire, and attitudes of those who served. Major Benham’s image represents a chapter in American military history that shaped the nation’s growth and military practices.
