@@katappa5478 You can say the same with the British. At first they were the invaders of the island, because they're Germanic people and second, do you know how many people killed and murdered the British in Canada, US territory, Australia and Africa.

This is a british siren not american
My grandmother whom is currently 88 and born in 1931, was 9/10 years old when bombs hit her hometown of Dewsbury on 12 December 1940 and the surrounding areas. The anti-aircraft guns were positioned at the top of Caulms Wood (the local woodland area) there was a communal shelter about one or two streets away from her in Batley, one of her older friends at the time died in the blast, she's told me the most horrific part of the bombing was the screeching sound as the bomb shot downwards i remember when she told me she said it was 'hellish' which is probably the most accurate and appropriate description, Her father fought in the first world war too, driving supplies onto the front line via horse. I cant imagine what this experience would have done to him, all the PTSD and such, a truly truly unimaginably terrifying time.

My Mum was born 30 September 1939, 27 days after WWII was declared. As a toddler, she tells me that she can still remember being led by her Mother (my Granny) by the hand with her elder brothers and sister to a nearby farmer's field to lay in the ditches of the field night after night until the 'all clear' sounded. In the pitch dark, cold night air, any sound would have been frightening for a toddler, much less the sound of bombs exploding. A different age....❤❤❤❤

My Nanna said that when she was little and the air raid siren would sound, her mum would gather the kids together and hide under their shelter which was a Morrison shelter (a kitchen table with mesh around the sides). Her mum would be crying and shaking and I can only imagine how terrifying it must have been for people who had never experienced anything like that before. They would rarely have even heard planes.

The streets looked a lot cleaner then...!
My Great Grandfather fought & served with the Cdn. Military in WW2, he was a young scottish immigrant and the fight was back home so of course he signed up and went to fight. He was deployed all throughout Europe but the biggest battle he ever took part in was the Invasion of Normandy on June 6. He stormed Juno Beach with the 3rd Infantry Division, marched thru holland & belgium i believe until he got to Nazi Germany. He will always be my hero for the rest of my life.

It makes me wonder. Just how long I would have lasted, as a claustrophobic mess that I am? I would have very likely panicked and then been smothered by my neighbors to quell my nervous thrashing and pandemonium. At least those sirens are straightforward. Short bursts up and down for the hide for cover, and then the long and steady (almost peaceful or serene) drone for the All Clear. It’s quite a shame those sirens are still in use today for still all the wrong reasons excepting tornadoes and tests. Thanks for uploading this, harrowing as it is.
My parents have got an air raid shelter at the bottom of their garden in London, the house was built in the 1930s. They’ve never excavated it which is a shame.

My mum and her sister were evacuated to the West Country at the beginning of the war. Then their mum went and bought them back to London! Mum said the most frightening thing were the doodlebugs/buzz bombs. If they flew over with the engine buzzing you were ok. If not, it was a lottery of death and destruction. How can we even imagine how terrifying it must have been.
