Insignia of Air Raid Protective Services

Air raid protection--what to do in your home. This is not the way to spend the evening, but simply a handy place to go if bombs suddenly start falling nearby. A heavy, sturdy table will not only keep off falling plaster that may be shaken down by a nearby burst, but would even help to support beams if the upper stories should come down. A shelter such as this will give the rescue squads a chance to save you. One precaution: keep that table away from the window

Air raid protection--what to do in your home. When the air raid siren sounds, fill available containers, including the bathtub with water. This serves two purposes: it provides (1) a ready supply of water in the event of fire, and (2) readily available water for the family in the event a bomb stikes the water main in your neighborhood, cutting off or greatly reducing the water pressure

Air raid protection--what to do in your home. When an alarm sounds, turn off the gas! This includes heater, refrigerator, light and stove gas. Be sure the pilot light on your gas stove is turned off.
