How would you have felt about sheltering in an Anderson shelter
during an air raid?

Air Raids
Families who had a garden often had an Anderson shelter. These
shelters came as a kit of six sheets of steel which had to be bolted
together and partly dug into the ground. There was no floor or door
and they were usually damp. After heavy rain they often flooded
completely.
Other kinds of shelters included the Morrison shelter, which was
put up inside the house, brick shelters that the local council
built, or if you lived in London, the London Underground. Some
people even sheltered in caves.
