Title	Civilian Conservation Corps patch, red
Description	Shield-shaped red felt patch embroidered in gold and green thread with a tree, a surveying tool, and the letters "CCC" appearing at the top of the shield.
Historical note	This arm patch reflects some of the areas of emphasis of the Civilian Conservation Corps work. In this case, forestry, conservation, surveying, and mapping are all suggested by the design of the patch. This patch stands separate from the Civilian Conservation Corps insignia patch, the Company-specific patches, and those chevron or stripe patches worn to designate a rank within the Civilian Conservation Corps.
