"My Mother was 10 years old in 1942, living in Harris Street Mascot. She remembers her father building an underground bunker in the backyard, paper covering the windows to keep light in at night, and street signs taken down to hinder spies. She was also sent to live with an aunt in Dubbo for a couple of months, but returned after feeling homesick."
