Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the New Deal, opening work camps all over the country. This deal was signed to try to fight the already large, and growing amount of Americans that were unemployed. One of these work camps was the Civilian Conservation Corps, considered to be one of FDR's most successful camps.

This was the main symbol used to recognize the Civilian Conservation Corps. It can be identified by the CCC in the middle as well as the picture of a forest showing what the CCC primarily worked towards.

Along with the main emblem, many pieces of propaganda/art were made to advertise the CCC. The CCC was targeted towards young, single men from ages 18-25, but the age was later expanded to 17-28 to allow for more people to work.

The young men that worked for the CCC were stationed in camps across the country. The men were given shelter, and food daily, along with pay (they were required to send a portion back to their families).

Meals were provided to workers at kitchens, CCC workers  alternated between chores on a campsite, a kitchen worker being one of them. Meals were served everyday, they got things like eggs and coffee for breakfast, and bologna for dinner.
