CIVILIAN CONSERVATION CORPS,
one of Franklin Delano Roosevelt's "New Deal" programs/ It provided outdoor,
public space employment to the jobless such as trailblazing hiking paths,
felling woodlands, and clearing land for military installations and parks.
Geared primarily at younger unemployed from about ages 16-30.
