"The slogan of the Civilian Conservation Corps
is 'We can take it!' Building strong bodies is a major CCC objective.
More than half the enrollees who entered CCC the last year were seventeen
years of age. Work, calisthenics, marching drill, good food, and medical
care feature the CCC health program."
