Screenshot of a scanned document with "UNCLASSIFIED" at the top and "SECRET" and "RESTRICTED DATA" black classification markings crossed out. The text visible reads as follows: 

"The warhead would be nuclearly safe, both individually and in groups, should the storage area become flooded with seawater; while the weapon was being stored or transported in accordance with prescribed procedures; while being carried on missions in readiness for use; or when jettisoned in deep water. The following priorities would be observed: Safety from nuclear disaster to friendly installations, acceptable reliability, invulnerability to neutron radiation, and invulnerability to other environmental conditions"

Not a few Civil Defense Shelter plans released by USA government have a “very minor official in Tang China China” pre-built tomb with grave goods feel to them. Often/usually illustrations are done in section b/c the spaces are small and tomblike.
Government pamphlet for an outside, semi mounded, corrugated plywood shelter. It shows three white people, a man in suit and tie, a woman in dress, and a small child, all on knees inside a small space with sandbags on top.Picture of a woman looking at a civil defense shelter display. The space shown has part of the brick wall removed to allow the visitor to view the small space which includes a single shelf of food and a bunkbed. It is approximately 100 square feet if that.
