Description |
English: During World War I a temporary Naval Training Station was set up on the University of Washington campus, near where the university's health sciences center is now located. The training camp was active from 1917-1919, during which time over 5,000 mostly college students were trained for both naval and naval aviation units. This image shows the Naval Training Station football team sitting on bleachers. Military leaders particularly emphasized football, considering it excellent combat training and arguing that it teaches discipline, teamwork, and following orders. This photo is part of an album belonging to Anne Augusta Bathurst (1894-1984) who was a UW student and served as Chief Yeomen (F) (popularly known as "Yeomanettes"" at the Naval Training Station during the period in which the photo was taken. Women were recruited into the Naval Reserve Force in the WW I era to meet severe clerical shortages at shore stations. In 1922 Anne married Henry H. "Harry" Hoefs (1893-1979), a Lieutenant commander in the U. S. Navy during both WWI and WWII; they were stationed all over the world and retired to Bellevue.Identifications from Herman Anderson photograph collection, University of Washington Libraries, Special Collections, PH Coll 1242.4: Top row: left to right: Bartlett, McDonald, Crowley, Saunders, Williams, Maris, Chaplain James.
