Catastrophe Planning (1955)
Catastrophe Planning (1955) : "This assumption is a major premise in the operation of civil defense. The capabilities of nuclear and other weapons are so great that an attack, if successful, will result in damage and casualties far beyond the resources of any community. Assistance to attacked communities must come from outside and possibly from great distances. It must be organized in advance of an attack in order to be available when required. This means that available resources of the entire country, outside potential target areas as well as within them, must be geared into the civil defense system." (FCDA, 1955 Annual Report, 1956, p. 17)
