From the July 16, 2014, AIR RAID RULES: 1942. July 1942, "West Danville, Vermont. Guy Davenport, 16, and Maynard Clark, 14, reading the air-raid instruction posted in Gilbert S. hasting's post office and general store." By Fritz Henle, OWI.
Part of what they were reading: "WHAT TO DO-- WHAT NOT TO DO: This war is not like any other. It may reach your street-- your home-- at any moment. You may be fighting in the war tomorrow, or next month.
"Your government asks of you one simple thing, but one very important thing...Learn and remember what to do if enemy planes and bombs come."
