Barracks life and camping at Fort Jackson -- more rare color photos
A view inside the barracks at Fort Jackson. All the bunks are laid out carefully for inspection.
An outdoor church service on a Sunday morning. The reverend curiously appears to be a young boy.
A view of a row of large tents. Notice the electrical lines strung between them, and the rows of bunks moved outside during good weather.
