16th Sustainment Brigade

BAUMHOLDER, Germany – Whether it is the newest riflescope, helicopter displays, or night vision devices, the U.S. Army Soldier challenges the modern era through the lenses of the best technology. Advanced photography equipment from Army Public Affairs documented the age with crystal-clear images of military life.

How would the 21st century military look like to the world as America landed on the moon?

The 16th Sustainment Brigade attempts to pause time by observing year-2015 Soldiers through a set of circa 1965 lenses.
