Marcus Poko and an unidentified male student, c.1880

Studio portrait of Marcus Poko (standing right) and an unidentified male student, both wearing school uniforms.

The unidentified student had previously been tentatively identified as Otto Wells, but based on other photos of Wells it does not appear to be him. A copy of this image was sent to the Army Heritage Education Center with the two students identified as "Markis Poko and John Buckiman." There is no student at Carlisle with a name similar to John Buckiman.
