Default Civilian Conservation Corps
Today, many folks were posting their Dad's photos on Facebook in honor of their military Service. My Dad wasn't in the military, but he served in the Civilian Conservation Corps. I would be interested in talking with anyone who served or knows someone who served in the CCC in Idaho and California.
My Dad was a member of Company 560 at Camp F-160 Gold Center Clarkia Idaho. He was enrolled May 23rd, 1933 at Fort Knox.
According to the paperwork they sent my Dad, he was transferred in June 1933 to Camp F-111 Lower Sespe Fillmore,CA and then transferred again April 30, 1934 to Camp F-160 Clarkia, Idaho. He received his honorable discharge 7/5/34.
