Scope and content
It's every man for himself as young uniformed men reach for dessert outside of the Camp Murray enlisted men's Mess Hall during the July 1934 Citizen's Military Training Camp (CMTC). The pie is going fast and there doesn't appear to be enough for all. The summer training camp combined the CMTC, ROTC and Officers' Reserve Corps for the first time. The purpose of the summer training was to acquaint young men with the armed forces in case they needed to be called up during wartime. (T. Times 7/13/1934, pg. 1) TPL-10378
