| Ground Observer Corps |
The 14 Nov 1957 edition of The Matawan Journal included an advertisement from the Ground Observer Corps, which was recruiting housewives during the Cold War to spot hostile aircraft and help prevent an outbreak of hostilities, presumably between the US and the Soviet bloc.
WHAT A HOUSEWIFE CAN DO TO PREVENT A WAR!
To meet the threat of an air attack, our armed services need your help. They need your eyes and ears as a civilian volunteer spotter in the Ground Observer Corps.
As a spotter you'll be helping to strengthen our defenses and the stronger our defenses grow, the less chance there is of an aggressor starting a war. Reason enough, don't you agree, to volunteer for the Ground Observer Corps today!
Wake up! Sign up! Look up!
Join the Ground Observer Corps.
Call or write Civil Defense.
