Human Statue of Liberty

ScrappyAggie sent me a copy of this picture that she received by e-mail, and we were both inspired by it, I don't know if there is any copyright on this picture, but Aggie has scrapped it beautifully, and I wanted to make a paper out of it for our American cousins.
Aggie would like to give credit to Scrapbook Flair for their Home of the Brave kit that she used in her LO.
I would like to give credit to Aggie for forwarding the picture to me, and to whoever owns the copyright (I would assume the USA Military).
The caption reads :
Human Statue of Liberty
18,000 Officers and Men
at
Camp Dodge Des Moines Ia
Col. Wm. Newman, Commanding
Col. Rush S. Wells, Directing

The caption on the e-mail stated this picture was taken in 1918.

!!!!! INSPIRING ISN'T IT !!!!!

    Wow - that's an amazing pic! I can't believe I've never seen that before! It's a shame that like that isn't more widely known and isn't in every history book in our classrooms. Thanks for sharing.
