From the January 4, 2017, MidWeek "Looking Back."
1941, 75 Years Ago.
"An ingenious scheme is being tried out to give DeKalb siren warnings for blackouts. Phonograph records are being made from a siren on a fire truck at the fire station.
"The records will be used on public address loudspeaker systems mounted on high spots in the city. The plan saves the city the cost of buying huge sirens as is being done in many larger cities."

The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.
