Col. G.A. Wingate (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

• 4 older comments, and then…

  According to this: tinyurl.com/kkk9qm Col. Wingate was commander of the 2nd Field Artillery Regiment of the NY National Guard in 1913. These photos are probably taken on the same maneuvers in HIcksville as the ones on previous pages. See: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/3774622759/in/s...

• Mark said:

  A Colonel George A. Wingate is listed as the commanding officer of the 2nd Field Artillery, Division HQ, N.Y. National Guard located at 171 Clermont Avenue in Brooklyn according to the 1915 edition of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle Almanac (on Google Books).

• aware health said:

  Interesting -- the previous two comments on this picture, one of them mine, have been removed.

• Mark said:

  There were none when I commented but it listed 2 comments after I made mine although only mine appeared.

• Harry Polny said:

  I don't think this is an artillery unit, Notice the aide on the col's left, he's carrying a colt .38 model 1909 with butt foreward, spurs and boots scream calvary. Of course I may be worng artillery was moved by horse at that time ( poss. 1912- 1916). When do you think the pic was taken?

Gen. Leggett [i.e., Liggett] & party - Gettysburg (LOC)

  LOC -- this should be corrected to Liggett, not Leggett. Other Bain/LOC photos of General Hunter Liggett, commander of the 50th anniveresary encampment at Gettysburg: www.flickr.com/search/?q=leggett&w=8623220@N02

• Mary said:

  Wystan: Thank you for the correction. We'll correct our data for this and the other related photos.
