Title

The Legion in New York -- Washington Centennial 1889, 1907

Description

The New York Sun said, "Next came the Kentuckians, the finest looking regiment in the parade. Their single rank is the formation of the future. So perfect was their cadence that the time taken by the music to reach the rear companies caused an undulation of the long column of shining steel bayonets and white plumes, indescribably magnificent."
