Mid-Week Monochrome #118: Grandfather’s Military Service

My maternal grandfather served in the U. S. Army during World War I. These are photographs of his service in the military. I treasure the photos as there are a link to a slim part of our family history.

This is actually one of my maternal grandfather’s photos I inherited after his passing when I was 12. It is very precious to me. On the back of the photo, he wrote what the name of the place. My maternal grandfather, Harvey Martin Watson, stayed on the fifth floor of the building on the right side of the photo. While he was there he received treatment for a wound he received during World War I. I not only gained a photo, but a piece of his history as well. That in itself means a great deal to me. It is extremely precious and definitely appreciated.

God bless. Thank you! I appreciate y’all.
