Young men and a few young women enjoy themselves at a 1921 dance held at the Citizens Military Training Camp (CMTC) conducted at Camp Pike, which was built as a World War I training camp. The CMTC was a voluntary summer program from 1921 to 1940 designed to provide basic military training for Americas young men. Over 400,000 men completed at least one session of the nationwide program.
