"Camp Devens, named after jurist and Civil War general Charles Devens, was established on September 5, 1917, as a temporary cantonment for training soldiers during World War I. About 5,000 acres of land as leased then later purchased from 112 owners who sold 230 parcels of land in the towns of Ayer, Harvard, Lancaster and Shirley by the federal government. Some was fine farmland along the Nashua River and other was "sprout" land where trees had been cut leaving stumps. "The Fort's siting was due primarily to its location at a major hub of the rail network in New England. Construction, by the largest labor force assembled in the United States, to build an entire city for 10,000 requiring barracks, training buildings, water and sewer systems, raced at the rate of 10.4 new buildings every day. It was a reception center for war selectees and became a demobilization center after the war. As one of 16 temporary cantonments, Camp Devens processed and trained more than 100,000 soldiers.[citation needed] Three divisions (the 12th, the 26th and the 76th) were activated and trained at Devens during the war. "In 1918, Camp Devens, was afflicted by the late 1918 deadly second wave of the 1918 flu pandemic. Approximately 850 soldiers, mostly privates, died at the camp during 1918 from the Spanish flu. "In 1918, it became a separation center for over 150,000 troops upon their return from France.[citation needed] Put on inactive status, it served next as a summer training camp for National Guardsmen, Reservists and ROTC cadets." - wiki.

Nursing student photograph album, circa 1915, documenting the training, social life, and professional formation of young women entering the medical field during the First World War, with direct relevance to the expansion of nursing education, public health campaigns, and women's participation in wartime medical systems in the United States. The album centers on a cohort of fourteen student nurses, shown in clinical settings including operating rooms as well as in informal group settings, providing visual evidence of institutional training environments and peer networks within early twentieth-century nursing programs. One photograph prominently features the group posed behind a sign reading "Smallpox!", pointing to the ongoing presence of infectious disease and the role of nurses in public health response during a period of recurring outbreaks that shaped both medical training and recruitment into the profession. Additional photographs extend the documentary scope to include soldiers, early aviation imagery, and domestic scenes, situating the nurses within the broader social and wartime context of the United States during the 1910s.

The photographs are mounted to black album pages and depict nursing instruction, clinical practice, and group portraiture alongside scenes of military presence and early aviation, including images taken from a World War I-era biplane above the clouds, suggesting personal connections between the compiler and an early aviator.
