CPS Camp No. 34, Detached Service, also carried on its roster those men who engaged in detached service with the National Service Board of Religious Objectors, the American Friends Service Committee, the Brethren Service Committee, Mennonite Central Committee and a few other agencies working on special CPS projects, tasks, or on relief efforts. This website has created subunits [2] through [6] of CPS Camp No. 34 identified by the type of work done, with which agencies or projects, and in some cases where that work occurred.
One hundred and twenty-six men performed detached service for the NSBRO and the Brethren Service Committee (BSC). The majority served on relief projects located in New Windsor, Maryland, Modesto, California or Nappanee, Indiana. Forty-seven men performed administrative work in Elgin, Illinois or in New Windsor. Two men worked on the heifer project, one in Greenville, Ohio and the other at New Windsor. One man worked on the BSC cooking school project.
