Scary nuclear attack warning -https://www.freesound.org/people/mpaol2023/sounds/370184/
all parts for free sampling at archive.org/details/WoodNetMix

Anyone who’s listened to television or radio over the past five decades is intimately familiar with that horrible, chill-inducing noise of the Emergency Alert System. Aside from catching your attention, that nails-on-a-chalkboard screeching serves a useful purpose that calls back to the days of dial-up internet.

The tense atmosphere of the Cold War left the United States scrambling to prepare itself for the not-insignificant threat of an all-out nuclear war with the Soviet Union. Among the many ways the country prepared for the possibility of getting wiped out in some radioactive hellscape involved an intricate network of warning systems that spanned from coast to coast, quickly alerting residents to seek shelter and brace for impact.

Thankfully, though we came pretty close, the development of these systems proved unnecessary for their intended use. Many of the civil defense sirens set up around the country were repurposed and extended to use as tornado sirens (which are extremely unreliable, by the way), and bomb shelters are used for everything from tornado protection to swanky living quarters. (People still say ‘swanky,’ right?)
