http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/731025450

Photographs and postcards pertaining to Robert T. Lambert, a Milwaukee, Wisconsin resident who served with Company E, 107th Engineer Regiment during World War I. The images were taken during training at Camp Douglas and Camp MacArthur, and also after the unit's deployment to Europe with the 32nd Infantry Division. They depict military life during training, showing soldiers hiking, having meals, and posing for photographs. The Camp MacArthur photographs are of various buildings and structures at the camp, some in the process of being built. Two interesting postcards concern the death of Quentin Roosevelt; one showing the scene of his crash at the Battle of the Marne and another of his gravesite.
