Citizens Military Training Camp, C.M.T.C., at Camp Murray. Major Jack Muckey, lower left hand corner, arrives as a group of citizen soldiers line up prior to donning the olive drab that they will wear for the remainder of the camp. Tents, a one-story building with shutters, and automobiles are visible on the camp grounds. Major Muckey, from Tacoma, was the reservist serving as the liaison officer for the camp. The annual summer citizens camp was used both for training young men interested in military careers and as a refresher course for reservists. (T. Times 7/9/1936, pg. 14)
