My father was in the CCCs just before World War II and spoke of it with great affection. He was one of those that the DVD mentions that lived on the road hopping on and off freight trains. I will always believe that the CCC saved him and allowed him to be successful later in life. This DVD tells the story beautifully of how it saved an entire generation of young men in this country and allowed them to be prepared to help save the world after Pearl Harbor. It was the perfect thing at the perfect time and something that would definitely be worth resurrecting again. This is just a great, great story.

Great history lessons!

We ordered this for our sons in whom we are wanting to instill a love of working with their hands. It is a wonderful look at the lives of several men who joined the CCC during the depression because of lack of work. We loved the inclusion of many film clips of enthusiastic young men learning carpentry, masonry and other skills. The interviews of the men years later, and one man's tears at some of his memories of the Depression was very meaningful for our family. The movie also brings out the importance of soil conservation and caring for the environment in general. Many good messages here - we highly recommend it.

This is a wonderful tribute to the men of the CCC and the work they performed. Three million men served in the CCC, and yet most people today have never even heard of it. We need a revival of this organization and the work they performed. With so many today
accepting welfare and thinking that it is beneath their dignity to work (yet not to accept handouts!) I guess it would not work And yet
there is plenty of work that needs to be done. Our parks are understaffed and falling apart. The CCC built and maintained them.
And, when World War II came, there was a body of 3,000,000 physically fit men, used to military training and discipline (the camps
were run by military officers) ready for service. Today, only one in four of our youth could pass a military physical.. All this is showcases in this wonderful tribute to the CCC. Highly recommended!

CCC- One of the best historical DVD's I have found.

After watching this movie several times on DVD's from netflix, I bought it! If you have never seen this movie and are interested in the human spirit- how Americans survive, and especially now with the economy the way that it is- get this movie. I have watched it at least six times and get more out of it every time. My students love it. It is very inspirational on many levels- historically and a story of what people will do to make the best of a situation!

hello thank you so much for this dvd. I bought it for a wonderful man at the nursing home in his 90's who remembered when he was in one of these work camps when the country was going down in the past.

I played it for him yesterday and it was worth the price of admission. I saw it on channel 11 PBS program.

Thank you so much. This was an american experience that has been forgotten. It really shows the wisdom beyond his years (FDR).
Thank you again.

Terrific for students and classroom

Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2014

As a History instructor at a community college, this documentary has been a huge hit for the past 4 semesters. Some students have returned the following week to let me know their grandfathers were in the CCC. The historical footage wonderfully supports the memories of four terrific men who found new lives because of FDR's program. Highly recommend for the classroom.

It told the story with many personal accounts of people who were in it. It was one of the best and well rounded accounts of the Civilian Conservation Corps you could possibly get. You get a real feel of what it was like to be involved in it and what it meant to the country!! LOVED IT!!!!
