Necessary Items

To their surprise, the shelter still had all the necessary items and it consisted of bunk beds, a lantern, and a folding toilet inside the shelter. It too had food items stocked inside the fallout shelter. And there were other things that were to be discovered.

The Seal

Water had completely ruined the condition of the room. With this, the couple came to the conclusion that the shelter might have a broken seal from where the water might have entered the shelter. Hence it wouldn’t have proved to be effective in protecting the inmates from radioactive debris.

Mysterious Boxes

Along with the destroyed food and things, the couple saw some boxes which were in perfect condition even after so many years. What were in these boxes? The couple rushed to the corner in which these airtight boxes were kept to have a closer look. These boxes didn’t seem to be some regular boxes. This increased their curiosity and they picked up the boxes in their hands.

Unboxing

They looked at each other for a moment because they didn’t know what the boxes might contain. So both of them climbed out of the opening from the hatch where their kids were too waiting for them. They placed the boxes on the ground and tried to unbox them. When they opened the box saw a packet of Kellogg’s Cornflakes, chocolate chip cookies, and tins of Flavor Kist saltines. Surprisingly, these food items weren’t destroyed in any way.

One Distinct Box

Among all the boxes, there was one particular box that caught their attention. It looked like an old ammunition box but they didn’t know if they were right or not. The couple was doubtful and hence they thought of taking help from someone who might have a better idea as to what it might be. So without wasting any time, they decided to call the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

Experts

Within no time, the experts came to their house to examine the content of the box. They carefully started their operation and opened the box. To their amazement, they saw a stock of Hawaiian Punch in the box. With the help of experts, they also found out some types of equipment that Frank might have used for detecting the nuclear attack. The team also found out a Geiger counter that Frank might have installed in the shelter to measure the radiation.
