This grew out of my Down Da Road I Go Blog which now has become primarily what I'm doing and music. I was getting so much history in it, I spun this one off and now have World War II and War of 1812 blogs which came off this one. The Blog List below right has all the way too many blogs that I write.

"Atomic Attack" At NIU in 1968
From the August 8, 2018, MidWeek "Looking Back."
1968, 50 Years Ago.
"The United States will be under 'atomic attack' for 24 hours this weekend as nearly 30 Northern Illinois residents take shelter in a university dormitory here.
"The shelter is in the basement of the 13-story Stevenson Towers on the Northern Illinois University campus will house participants from age three to adults during a drill conducted by NIU's disaster preparedness committee."
