Civil Defense Corps

The Civil Defense Corps was a volunteer organization established to prepare for and respond to emergencies such as natural disasters, wartime attacks, and other crises. Its members trained in activities like first aid, evacuation procedures, and rescue operations to support the community and ensure safety during emergencies. The Corps aimed to supplement official emergency services, promoting community resilience and readiness. While its structure and existence have evolved or been phased out in many regions, its core mission was to enhance local disaster preparedness through trained civilian volunteers.
