Birch Bay, Washington
For those that claim George Hodel never held a job as a surgeon in his doctoring years prior to joining the Los Angeles Health Department. Here is a copy of Dr. George Hodel’s 1942 Public Health Service application which documents his service as the sole surgeon at a Arizona logging camp in 1936 and 1937, just two years before hiring on with L.A. County Health Department in 1939.

President Roosevelt’s CCC as defied in Wikipedia:
Steve: Do you have any clarity on why the resume says the CCC camp was in New Mexico when I thought it was established it was in Prescott, AZ? Did he work at two different camps? -LW
LW:
I’m really not sure. My impression was it was in Cochise AZ near Bisbee. Tamar claimed to have visited him in Bisbee with her mother, but based on the years she would only have been one or two years old, so she could not have had her own memory of the visit. Just not sure where exactly the CCC camp was located? Best evidence establishes it was in New Mexico based on the application, but as you say, he could have traveled to several camps?
