Soldatenleven tijdens de opleiding 1935 - 1940

This anonymous photographic album, "Soldatenleven tijdens de opleiding" (Soldier Life During Training), offers a glimpse into military life in the Netherlands during the 1930s. The black and white photographs, likely taken by a soldier, depict various scenes of military training, including indoor gatherings, outdoor drills, and individual portraits. The album, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, provides a poignant record of a specific time and place, offering valuable insight into the everyday experiences of Dutch soldiers in the period before World War II.
