WHAT TO DO IN A GAS ATTACK

1943 · National Archives and Records Administration (via FedFlix)

Finding Not asserted

Not asserted: the record does not name the creating body; its local identifier places it in NARA record group 171 (Office of Civilian Defense), a federal agency's records, which is evidence of federal origin but not proof of authorship, since agencies also filed acquired and captured footage.

The record does not name a federal creating body, or names one alongside a private producer, a state body or a government corporation. Such a film may well be a government work, but this registry only says so when the record does.
