Loggers in the state of Washington during World War One, seen in this image, were engaged in lumbering activities specifically for the construction of wooden ships. Here, they can be seen working on a Douglas fir tree, which was commonly used in the shipbuilding industry at the time. This photograph, numbered 111-SC-2415, was taken on January 25, 1918, and was authorized for release by W. J. D. to the Photo Division of the US military.
