Palm-Lined Parade Ground and Administrative Buildings, U.S. Military Installation, Panama Canal Zone, WWII Era
A palm-shaded parade ground at a U.S. military installation in the Panama Canal Zone, circa World War II. Whitewashed tree trunks and neatly kept grounds reflect the disciplined order of garrison life, while a small cannon on display and low administrative buildings speak to the base's defensive role protecting the strategically vital Panama Canal.
