    My father was a cook in the Army in the mid 1930's. I have the cookbook he used. I imagine this picture was about WWI era but it could well have been dad's era too. Not much difference. He road a horse and set up field kitchens. OK I see it is listed in the 1910's.

    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...

    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).

    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.

    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?

    This de Havilland Moth is pictured at the Hicksville Aviation Country Club. It was modified by Grover Loening (and test flown by Budd Gillies).
