Why is Morrison shelters important?

There were two types of shelter available for home use during World War 2. The Anderson shelter was supplied to people who had a back garden. You would have to dig a hole in your garden big enough to bury half of the shelter. The spoil from the hole was then used to cover the top of the shelter. It was reasonably successful in protecting from bomb blast but couldn't take a direct hit. The Morrison shelter was for people who had no back garden and was basically a self assembled steel cage which could be put under a stairs or somewhere similar.

People had to learn to make clothes and build shelter because if people didn't have clothing they would be in the "nude" or naked. Another reason would be if people didn't have clothing they wouldn't have any warmth on there bodies and they could get very ill. People learned how to build shelter because if there wasn't any shelter people would be living on the streets with no warmth, comfort, and protection.
