Come to your defenses

Here is an interesting Blast from the Past. The Michigan Civil Defense Museum.This site documents Michigan's role in the Cold War Civil Defense movement.  During the 1950s and 1960s, the United States was constantly on guard for the risk of a nuclear attack. To be prepared, Fallout shelters were prepared in schools, police stations, hospitals, and other locations, and people were trained to help others in case of emergency. There was even a radio communication system, named Conelrad, that got emergency radio information to the public in an emergency. Some of the old Civil Defense signs are still posted on many old buildings. There are videos on YouTube from this era that train the general public and people in training for Fallout Shelter wardens.
