The US Navy's Naval History and Heritage Command has re-discovered about 150 glass-plate negatives from the Spanish-American War and the Philippine Insurrection. About 50 have been put on their Flickr page.

You are welcome, comrades. I hope the NH&HC doesn't take too long in getting the rest digitized and on-line.

Nice find. Those action shots look kind of like illustrations, however…
