They portray the horrors of war and images of life in camp. They represent photojournalism in its infancy and present us with real-life interpretations of our nation at war with itself.…More

I think this is a refugee camp for free slaves. There are no guns at all around this camp. No uniforms hanging from clothline. There are leaves on the tree. There's no chimney in the so call huts. Trash all over the ground. No genearal would have a camp like this. This picture needs to be study more.mikeb5627914 commented on this image. (09 May 2012)
