Air Raid Warden's Helmet


I remember the air raid drills during the Second World War when I was 2-4 years old. Everyone had to turn the lights out and pull down the shades. Dad was floor warden and wore a white helmet like the one pictured below, except that my father's helmet was not discolored and beat up looking.. This was in an apartment building in New York City.
