The Warning (1939) - extract

I can imagine how scary this would be bless

The sirens creeped me out!!!

My grandmother whom is currently 88 and born in 1931, was 9/10 years old when bombs hit her hometown of Dewsbury on 12 December 1940 and the surrounding areas. The anti-aircraft guns were positioned at the top of Caulms Wood (the local woodland area) there was a communal shelter about one or two streets away from her in Batley, one of her older friends at the time died in the blast, she's told me the most horrific part of the bombing was the screeching sound as the bomb shot downwards i remember when she told me she said it was 'hellish' which is probably the most accurate and appropriate description, Her father fought in the first world war too, driving supplies onto the front line via horse. I cant imagine what this experience would have done to him, all the PTSD and such, a truly truly unimaginably terrifying time.

kid crying crashed in the window door brought me here.

A salute to my great grandfather Albert C Sargent. You fought for our freedom. R.I.P. Albert C Sargent

No but imagine just walking home from school and hearing air-raid sirens go off,light go out,curtains closed,people rushing for shelter and just panic that would scar a person for life

If I were to time travel, I'd do it in this time in England...

I don’t know my great great grandfather but he fought in a tank killing a German general and died from a grenade so if u are reading this bless the solders who fought for freedom , our happiness and our lives .

My Mum was born 30 September 1939, 27 days after WWII was declared. As a toddler, she tells me that she can still remember being led by her Mother (my Granny) by the hand with her elder brothers and sister to a nearby farmer's field to lay in the ditches of the field night after night until the 'all clear' sounded. In the pitch dark, cold night air, any sound would have been frightening for a toddler, much less the sound of bombs exploding. A different age....❤❤❤❤

Even the dog knew what to do that's cute

My great grandad, who is now 94, fought in this war. He was only 12 years old. I can’t imagine how he must’ve felt at this very moment

it must've been the scariest thing to have heard in that time

my uncle said everybody farted in air raid shelters

but the siren at 0:08 is a French siren and a British siren is heard.

my great Granda was in ww1 ships and survived and he didn’t take place in ww2 but also survived that! I’m still so proud of him.

0:08 That Siren Is A Sirene Civile Air Raid Siren

This is really shows what the fear is like and the music in the end is amazing showing them running

Maybe my mother was in this war but she was the one who took down a plane before getting shot... Mad respect mom.

Why do I keep Hearing the same type of voice in the old movies?
