Pictorial Review 1933-1934 Parke-Harper Company, Little Rock, AR
Camp Lost Corner was occupied by three different Companies of CCC enrollees.  The first was Companyu 764 which spent its first 6 months enrollment period
in North Dakato from May 1933 to October 1933.  It only remained at Camp Lost Corner for one 6 month enrollment period.  The second group  was Company 1758
from May 1934 to  April 1937, and the last was Company 745 from May 1937.  Their end date is uncertian but it was definitely by the summer of 1941.
