Military engineers, 1925. Building a standard pontoon bridge while on training manoeuvres. This photo appears to be a stock issue for publication in OAC yearbook or Oregon Stater, circa mid-1920s. Reprint in this format is from later date, with stamp on reverse: "Department of Information, Oregon State University, Corvallis, Oregon." Activities include cadets moving floating bridge components up to bank and building plank roadway. Military caterpillar tractor is pulling supplies to location. Cadets in uniforms and civilian onlookers on bank of river (probably Calapooia).
Stock photograph marked News Bureau Oregon State College, Administration Building, Corvallis, Oregon. Photograph is marked in pencil 21 pica wide, Oregon Stater. The model bridge appears to be of the pontoon type that is built in the field by US Army Corps of Engineers. Cadet officer to the left of the group has two metal rank diamonds (junior?) on epaulettes. Photograph is found on Page 8, February 1952, Oregon Stater Magazine.
