In early 1918, the US War Department created the Student Army Training Corps (SATC) as a way to hasten the training of soldiers for the war. Students in the SATC would simultaneously take college courses and train for the military.

This photo shows SATC drafted men from the Washington, D.C., area installing wires for the electric lights and motors in the wiring laboratory at the school, August 13, 1918. National Archives
