The Grim Reaper was the only major player absent as New York staged a mimic war in seven parts of the city as gigantic air raid precaution drill. Wardens scurried about their life saving, fire-fighting, and emergency repair duties to an accompaniment of smoke, siren wails, "machine gun fire," bursting bombs and other warlike trimmings. A control center is shown in action here during the "raid." (Photo by Bettmann Archive/Getty Images)
