Entry - August 7, 1936

9.00 P.M. I moved up to the position of acting leader today and have 18 men under me on my crew. We are cutting timber in back of camp and are making pretty fair headway.

Comments from Chris

Robert has mentioned being an old hand at some of the things they are doing. He was indeed. Remember at this point he was close to completing his third six month term in the CCC. The document is from earlier in the year when he was in Oregon, just before Glacier. Take a look at the enrollee numbers. Robert is lower than all the rest. Most by a good amount. Pretty good for a twenty year old.
