What did they do if you didn't have a Anderson shelter?

Answer 1

If someone did not have an Anderson shelter during World War II, they were advised to take refuge in the nearest sturdy building, like a basement or an interior room, to protect themselves from bomb blasts and shrapnel. They could also create makeshift shelters using furniture and heavy blankets to shield against debris. Additionally, many communities organized public air raid shelters for people to use during attacks. It was crucial to stay informed through air raid sirens and announcements to seek safety promptly.
