Included with this photo is a letter that Charlie wrote to his mother from Puerto Rico a few weeks before the end of the Spanish-American War. He describes the new uniform the troops would be receiving because their current clothing was in very bad condition. I believe this photo was taken in his new uniform when he returned to Massachusetts, placing the time of the photo around 1899 or 1900.

This image was purchased from an antique shop 50 years ago. The owner tracked me down (as profile manager) and gave it to me so that someone in the family would have it for posterity. It was taken in 1900 and does not have any copyright restrictions.
