Because they should be remembered, lets have a look back in time at some of the men who worked at CCC Camp Delta. All photographs courtesy of Bob Scheulke.
The bugler and one of the cooks outside the Kitchen. Interesting to see construction details. In an era before widespread use of plywood this building seems to be made of individual long planks, probably sawed on site. The current premium we pay on construction materials makes this quite a lot of 2021 money on display!

Donald Bidgood. He looks as if he might be dressed up to go to town.

The Camp Delta Ice Cutting Crew 1934
And a photo simply titled "Hang - Er - Up Time. Camp Delta 1938".
I can't fit this into any known geography of the camp so I assume this was a job site photo. Possibly taken the same day as the ice cutting photo, the man in the foreground is not carrying a rifle but some sort of complicated grabber. Maybe for ice, maybe a Cant Hook used to maneuver logs.
