Guam Homeland Security: ‘Do Not Look At The Flash Or Fireball’
dailycaller.com ^ | 08/11/2017

Posted on 08/11/2017 7:31:48 AM PDT by Helicondelta

Guam Homeland Security issued a new fact sheet Friday, which the agency says will help residents prepare for an imminent missile threat.

The information was released following this week's threat by North Korea to launch a missile attack against Guam.

The advice includes tips such as: "Do not look at the flash or fireball – It can blind you" and "Take cover behind anything that might offer protection."

“Lie flat on the ground and cover your head. If the explosion is some distance away, it could take 30 seconds or more for the blast wave to hit,” the sheet states.

Homeland Security says residents should prepare an emergency supply kit and a family emergency plan. During an imminent missile threat, authorities recommend taking cover as quickly as possible under a concrete structure or below ground after an attack warning is issued.

People should also avoid going outside for at least 24 hours to avoid any possible radioactive material, unless otherwise told by authorities.

If possible, take a shower with lots of soap and water, shampoo but avoid using conditioner that will bind to any radioactive material in your hair, the fact sheet states.

After the explosion, people are encouraged to keep an eye and an ear out for official information so they know where to go, what to do and places to avoid.

But yes, let’s take showers with water that is likely contaminated. Smart, real smart.

That was going to be my next point, LOL! It's gotta be a spoof .... if not someone's incredibly stupid for having written that.

It may be a nuclear war that saves mankind. The few survivors will rebuild and hopefully there’ll be no Islam.

I see a new cartoon with a Trump like character. It’s called “DONALD, DUCK AND COVER”.

Ah, the good old days...

Why aren't Guam officials doing something useful like following Berkeley's leadership and posting some signs?

Yeah, that'll work. "Duck and cover". Hide under your desk, that'll protect you.

Better yet, evacuate Seoul.

Long ago, in Basic Training at Fort Leonard Wood, a smart aleck DI trained us in what to do in a nuke attack:

Stand with your feet shoulder width apart.

Bend forward and down, grasping behind your knees.

Pull as hard as you can.

Reach forward and up and kiss your a$$ goodbye.

So we get to this nuke site in TU (that didn’t exist), and Top calls a formation of all the Cherries.

The normal things like stay away from this part of Istanbul, too many Soviet spies. Stay away from this part of Istanbul if you don’t have condoms, etc.

The he says, if the balloon goes up, you have enough time to say the Lord’s prayer, and kiss your azz good bye.

it depends on where the blast is relative to the water supply
