This cabinet card shows a member of Company K, 16th Infantry Regiment while stationed at FT Crook, Nebraska.
The 16th Infantry was stationed at FT Crook after their service in the Spanish American War (1898) and again in 1907 after their return from Phillipine occupation duty.

Thanks official.

Like some of the others, the presentation of the flag makes what might be a run of the mill photo into something special.
The flag does make the display.
Also, the 16th Infantry is a desirable regular Army regiment with a great history. Items associated with that unit are desirable.

Thanks for pointing out the regiment history. I only meant run of the mill in terms of the photo's aesthetic appeal.
I understand and "man in a chair" photos are very common and are usually of the dime a dozen variety.
Thanks again for looking,
Scott
