Title
English: Sailors training at naval training camp, Seattle, ca. 1918
Description
English:

During World War I, the University of Washington had a U.S. Navy training station on the shores of Lake Union. Before the camp closed in 1919, over 5,000 men had been trained there for both naval and naval aviation units. In this image, taken on the deck of a moored ship, four sailors use an unidentified training apparatus. They may be learning how to sight and position deck guns.
