Summary
A reenactor poses with a historical vehicle during the memorial ceremony for Belgian Lt. Col. Joseph Daumerie, Aug. 15, 2017, Brugelette, Belgium. The memorial commemorates the 75th anniversary of Daumerie's death. Daumerie is a war hero and fighter pilot who was executed in 1942 during World War II. The event offered a unique opportunity for the U.S. service members to honor a fallen hero and strengthen their relationship with NATO allies during the U.S. Army Garrison Benelux's 50th anniversary in Belgium.

We at GetArchive are exploring new methods of image metadata augmentation and verification. Our goal is to make it possible to find images on any topic. In particular, we are trying to verify and fix historic periodization. This collection is made of historic photographs of automobiles that look as if they were taken in the 1940s. The collection is made with aid of a neural image recognition network dealing with the whole image composition rather than with the car model - some cars may be dated incorrectly. Although, while this method is surprisingly good for the purpose of dating and tagging, a certain percentage of images (less than 8%) may not represent automobile, but other vehicle type or visually similar object. Naturally, our next step should be creating numerous datasets for a particular car years&models, but as of September 2022, we found no use to justify the effort.
