45govt Posted May 26, 2019 Share #1 Posted May 26, 2019 Received this one recently It is a US Infantry soldier with Krag rifle in Manila PI probable 1899-1901 The neat thing and the reason I bought it is the wristwatch, I have never seen one this early, if anyone has other photos that show early soldiers with wristwatches i would be interested in seeing them.
