Good morning.Lovely day still cool.
How many remember the days of fall out shelters
With the threat from Korea ready to unload one of them in the U.S.mainland.
I remember this very well.People was building fall out in the yard .
At the time it was pretty scary.I remember the Air Raid signals,the black out we had every night etc.
air raid siren etc.
anyone recall this?This was back in the early forties.
With the second World War 11 going on.

My uncle built one under his home in Canada, now it is a basement storage area lol As kids we had drills about where to hide just in case.

The high school that my son and daughter currently attend, which seems like it was built back in the Stone Age, still has fallout shelter signs mounted around the school. Most are old, faded and rusted, but they're still there. I remember my daughter asking me about those signs when she first started attending high school. For a while, it looked like we would never have a need for them, but I guess that's all changing now, and we may return to the days of fear over a nuclear war.
