Company 415, Camp NC P-7, Mt. Sterling, N. C. OFFICERS ROSTER 415 Captain Walker B. Abiley, Inf.—Res., Commanding. First Lieutenant Harry Reitmeyer. Lieutenant D. C. Corriber, U. S. N. Medical Officer. Second Lieutenant R. D. Bruce. HISTORY At 2:00 o'clock in the afternoon of the drizzly day of May 25, 1933, the founders of Company 415, Civilian Conservation Corps, arrived at Crestmont, to find only a wild and desolate valley, grown over with small trees, shrubs and weeds. Huge boulders filled the entire bottom of the valley, so numerous that some had to be moved to provide even enough room to stretch a tent. At the first sight of Crestmont, the members lost all patience. Tired, wet and chilled, they faced a true wilderness. The deluge of rain which had soaked them all lent to their discomfort. A hastily pitched tent, a quick lunch of water-soaked bread, beans and water put the men in a better mood, and then work was begun to construct shelter. All afternoon in a driving rain these fellows labored, sweating and mushing around in mud. We surely have "that stuff" here. But despite the mud and rain, despite the boulders, shrubs and trees and weeds, there was built then and in the day that followed a camp of the Civilian Conservation Corps worthy of any commander and considered the best in the sub-district. Among the commanders who have upheld the camp motto, "Improvise," since its beginning, are: Captain R. L. Allen, Fourth Field Artillery; Captain Charles W. Seifert, D. O. L.; First Lieutenant Stephen S. Koszewski, Fourth Field Artillery; Captain R. I. Poole, Engineer Reserves; Captain Harry Hickman, Infantry Reserves; First Lieutenant Robert W. Benn, Infantry Reserves, and Captain Walker B. Bailey, Infantry Reserves. Page Fifteen
Object’s are ‘parent’ level descriptions to ‘children’ items, (e.g. a book with pages).

Published in 1934, this 74-page bound book showcases eleven Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) camps located in the area of the Great Smoky Mountains. Each section discusses the establishment of a single camp and includes photographs of camp life as well as photographs and names of several thousand enrollees. Begun as a means to put the unemployed to work during the Great Depression, the program aided in conservation and in the construction of national parks. Young men assigned to this district typically were employed in forestry cleanup; road, bridge, and trail building; and fire safety. Established in 1933, the CCC operated until 1942.
