Ambush in the Desert
Date: 1910/1920
Creator: Aultman, Otis A.
Description: Photograph of United States soldiers ambushing the enemy. This group of soldiers has seen something in the distance and they are aiming their rifles at their target(s). Other than a mound of sand and some greasewood bushes, the desert provided very little protection from any returning bullets. These men are using their Springfield M1903 rifles with bayonets thus indicating that the enemy was not too far away.

Ambushing the Mexican Army
Date: 1910/1920
Creator: Aultman, Otis A.
Description: Photograph of Mexican Insurrectos taking aim at the Mexican Army. Obviously this photograph does not show the Mexican Army but it is logical to assume that is who this group of Insurrectos is firing at. The exact location of this photograph is not known however this group of Insurrectos is somewhere in the Mexico desert. Judging by the level of their rifles the enemy must have been very far away. A total of eight Insurrectos can be seen in this photograph.

American Journalist
Date: 1910/1920
Creator: Aultman, Otis A.
Description: Photograph of two American Journalist covering the Mexican Revolution. The information on the back of the photograph reads as follows: "Mexico - Revolution - Newsmen” The newsmen are identified as the two men in the center of the photograph. There is no information given about the identities of the newsmen or about the two Mexican men that they appear to be traveling with. Since all four men are carrying guns it appears that this group is all traveling together. Since the Mexican men are not heavily loaded with ammunition they do not appear to be insurrectos. The Mexican men were most likely hired by the newsmen as guides to take them into Mexico. Two shadows can also be seen in the bottom front part of this image. One shadow belongs to Aultman and the other shadow remains a mystery.

[Anglo Men]
Date: 1910/1920
Creator: Aultman, Otis A.
Description: Photograph of two Anglo men in Mexico during the Mexican Revolution. The man on the left more than likely participated in the revolution as a volunteer or mercenary for rebel forces. He has two bandoleers crisscrossed across his chest and a cartridge belt around his waist. The belt has the appearance of having been part of a military issued uniform. This man may have had prior military service before joining the revolution. The man on the right on the other hand does not have the appearance of having participated in the war since he carries no weapons or ammunition, however, that assumption cannot be verified.
