Company 535 was organized in 1933, at Fort Knox, Kentucky. The company spent time at camps in California, Montana, and Wyoming.

The Company’s first permanent location was Lyous Valley, California. The first month in Lyus Valley was spent preparing for the first enrollment of 188 men.

While in Yellowstone Park the Camp’s outstanding accomplishment has been the construction of the Mammoth Auto Camp near Mammoth, Wyoming. This involved landscaping, road construction, construction of comfort stations, tables, benches, fire places, and the laying of both water and sewer lines.
The company has also operated a nursery while in Yellowstone Park with excellent results. Trees and shrubs from the nursery have been sent to Many of the National Parks.
Located in an are heavily timbered with the forest growth so extremely essential for the protection of the Park wild life, fire pre-suppression and suppression is a prime responsibility. Outstanding assignment were the “White Lake” and “Hell Roaring” fires. Splendid discipline and courage were displayed by members of this company under National Park Service supervision.
An athletic program has been developed and maintained that has bought recognition from the entire district. The outstanding feat was the winning of second place in the District Basketball Tournament held at Fort Missoula, Montana, March 1940.- Constructing Mammoth Camp Ground
