Does anyone carry an eyepatch, to be worn when the threat is high, so if they are caught by a flash they only lose one eye? UK 'V' bomber pilots wore one whilst in the air.

P.S. I knew a Brit who was under half a mile from GZ at Nagasaki. He was a POW and labouring that day. When the air raid warning sounded he was escorted to an ordinary air raid shelter by his guard.
