Hello,

does anyone happen to know how many air raid wardens or ARP would have been on duty in a city the size of Sheffield?I read somewhere that it may have been a ratio of about 1:500 (ARP to civilians)?

Regards

Ron

Ron,

The target ratio of 1:500 is confirmed in the book Sheffield at War though no total figure for Sheffield is given.
