The civil defence blankets were part of the National Emergency Strategic Stockpile (NESS). They have been held with food, medical supplies, and other resources in the event of a nuclear attack since the early 1950s in Edson, Alberta. The civil defence blankets were wrapped in bundles and stored in burlap sacks in the town’s Post Office basement. Since being discovered, the blankets are currently being sold as a fundraiser for the Galloway Station Museum.
