Description:
Several CCC men participate in a National Defense training on how to build radios. The training is given by the U.S. Office of Education and the McCall Radio School near CCC Camp Lake Fork, company 2939. Taken in July. The writing above and on the back of the photo reads: 'Camp Lake Fork Company #2939, McCall, Idaho July 1941. National Defense Training -McCall Radio School- Unit Radio Production - Here are a group of CCC enrollees attending classes at the McCall, Idaho national defense radio school. Students in the class are being shown how to produce and build their own radio oscillators for code practice. Each man learns to assemble a specific part of the set. The enrollee in the front is laying out the front panel which he will drill for the parts which the second is wiring. The third enrollee is making a check on the different (over) (Cont'd.) instruments before the fourth one finally places the panel in its metal case. Final check-up and test is made by the enrollee at the end. This training, on a smaller scale, is given to enrollees to adapt them, if need be, to small scale radio set production in factories.
