In our previous Special Collections and University Archives post, we discovered Dr. Emma Estill-Harbour!

Here, Harbour stands alongside American soldiers and fellow YMCA members during her travels abroad. Notice the red triangle emblem on the lapel of the woman on the far left, identifying her affiliation with the YMCA’s wartime and community service efforts.

Though undated, this photograph offers a glimpse into Dr. Harbour’s international travels and her involvement in providing civilian support to military personnel.
