Fallout Shelters in Valmeyer IL....

(1/1)

superduty:
These used to be where they mined limestone. It was some of the purest deposits in the US. Theres a huge area mined out underground and part of it was used as a fall out shelter by the civil defense department. Now a large section is used by the National Archives to store records.

















Heres some video I found on youtube that was taken on the archive side by some trucker..

Hello, Superduty.  Is the limestone entrance and cave still explorable, or offlimits?  How'd you come across that?  Wow, it's great.  The UTube Video, too.  Highly interesting. Thanks!    Debra
