    wow 18,000

    that pic read and the writing below read; 1800 men at Camp Dodge in Des Moines. Pretty Cool!!!!
    You can zoom in pretty good with it.
    At first glance it did not look like it was on the ground or even people.
    wonder what exact what year?

    That is cool. It's a perspective thing with the distance I guess. It says there are 12,000 people in the flame alone couse it is so far away.

    That's wild. :)
