Vtg US Army 188th Infantry Training Company Group Portrait Fort Benning 50s 60s

This vintage black and white photograph documents a World War II era United States Army infantry squad, identified by the flag marked "188 S" featuring crossed rifles, a traditional infantry symbol. The group of 22 soldiers is posed outdoors in full uniform, wearing garrison caps with infantry insignia and standing or seated in two rows. The backdrop features open fields and distant buildings, suggesting a military base or training camp setting.

Measuring approximately 11x14 inches, the photo is printed on Agfa photographic paper, a hallmark of mid-20th century photography. The soldiers wear the classic M1941 field uniform with puttees and polished boots, indicating this image likely dates from the early 1940s. The "188" on the flag points to the 188th Infantry Regiment, which was active during WWII, adding historical context and collectible value.
