Air raid precautions
After Pearl Harbor was bombed, Americans became fearful of a possible attack on the United States mainland. Civilians volunteered to coordinate civil defense and home safety efforts in their local areas. Spotters studied aircraft silhouettes, blackout accessories were made available and air raid drills were practiced on a regular basis. This 1940’s WPA poster reminded citizens of the proper procedures to be followed during air raid drills.
