Civil Defence Training 1960's

[Flying10uk]

The following photos were taken on Civil Defence Corps training courses during the 1960's. As far as I am aware these photos have not been seen online before.

The country house is Danbury Park House near Chelmsford, Essex which was a Civil Defence and ambulance service training school. The next 3 photos are Bishops Waltham, Hampshire, Civil Defence and ambulance service training school. These Civil Defence training schools had training grounds with "simulated bomb damaged buildings". The photo with the ambulance in it has a simulated casualty on a stretcher right at the bottom of the image. The "simulated casualty" is supposed to be unconscious but has "come round" because his "simulated rescuer" has is boot resting on him.

The field kitchen photo was taken on a Civil Defence field catering course and shows a petrol fuelled stove. Can anyone shed any light on this type of stove?
