Title
Pacific University Student Samuel 'Hap' Morgan in His Navy Uniform During World War I
Description
A photograph of a Pacific University student sitting on a porch, wearing his navy uniform. The caption with the photograph identifies the student as Samuel 'Hap' Morgan. Later in life, he changed his name to Glenn Samuel Morgan. On the window behind him, several symbols related to military service are posted: a Star (probably a Blue Star, indicating that the home had one son serving in the military); a Red Cross service flag (indicating support for the Red Cross); and a third placard with the words "United States" at the top.
During this time period many men from Pacific University were enlisted in military service as the United States entered World War I in April, 1917. The student body was almost entirely made up of women. This picture appears in an album that was compiled by Greta McIntyre Sheeley, a 1920 Pacific University graduate.
