Description
Plant emergency defense meeting at the conference hall. The overhead projection of the Monongahela Valley shows what appears to be a hypothetical bomb blast radius. By early 1951, the Soviet Union had successfully tested its first atom bomb and the cold war and Korean conflict were intensifying. In this environment, the protection of key industrial centers such as the Mon Valley became crucial.
