Dover
Lock and Key of the Kingdom

“Now I lay me down to sleep.”

This child cannot remember sleeping anywhere but in a cave. She has her own double deck bunk with wire netting for springs.

Children keep right on playing in Dover’s streets - a long-range shell could wipe out this happy group.
The popular song about Dover and its absentee bluebirds says “There’ll be love and laughter… when the world is free.” These boys and girls smile in the midst of terror. Some of them, once evacuated, have returned to take their chances on familiar sidewalks.

In his cave, Blitz Baby is safe from shell and bomb.
Dover mothers like the security of 100 feet of rock above their children. Here a child is tucked in to a “duration” bed.
