Tree Army
- One of the first main ideas I noticed the narrator explain is the two main goals. Number one is to relieve the massive unemployment rate among young men. Men back then were the ones who had to work for their families. They weren't really considered men so they had to get jobs through the CCC. Number to is restore the natural environments.
- The second main idea I noticed is where the narrator explained what the CCC workers would be doing. They will be planting trees, building bridges, roads, phones lines, and restore historical sites.
- They explained how the men had to suffer through hot weather....
