Air Raid

If there is one thing that is known about Truman Warner, it is that he loved his community. He showed this in many ways, including a time around age 22, when Warner signed up to be a part of the Civilian Defense Force. This was from the Connecticut Defense Council, and it certified Warner to be an Air Raid Warden for the town of Danbury, Connecticut. While the collection items from his time in the Defense Force are small, it is another example of how early on in his life he started to truly care about those around him.
