Americans MUST watch! The Suppressed History of the United States
Americans MUST watch: the Suppressed History of the United States is a collection of videos I've uploaded on my channel previously, all of which have stood alone to tell the forgotten and often times hidden history of America, but in this video, I've merged them all together to provide a more complete understanding of why the past is so important in analyzing the present.

Whelen Hornet | Full Attack/Wail | Orleans, IN (Orange Co. Tornado Siren Test)
Copyright 2018 | Brandon Mendel (Please use with permission).
Originally Recorded 12/29/2017
Orleans, Indiana, is a pretty small town. Don't get me wrong, it's got a few places here and there. It's even large enough for a couple gas stations. But it's also large enough for three sirens.
The town has two Whelen Hornets, and one 2001-SRNB. This particular siren is on the north side of town near the high school. Originally, it was just the 2001. After doing some digging, it appears they got the 2001 through a grant, and originally they were going to get a Modulator from the sounds of it. The Hornets were installed later, sometime around late 2013 into 2014. It appears the local school district bought them, or at very least had some influence on these installs.
Another thing worth noting, is that there was a different dispatcher on duty when these were tested. So we didn't get that unique DTMF sequence we usually get. This probably means that Paoli's Hornets did wail, instead of the now usual hi-lo.
Enjoy, and as always comment, like, and subscribe for more. Thanks!

SS North American ~ A Magnificent Liner
I thought I would make photo collage of the SS North American throughout her whole career. If you don't know what the North American is, it's the sister ship of the SS South American, another Passenger Liner that served on the Great Lakes. The ship has mostly served for the Chicago, Duluth & Georgian Bay Transit Company (1913 - 1963). In 1963, the Canadian Holiday Line bought the ship and served for two seasons. In 1967, the ship was bought at a public auction by a sailors' training academy. Couple months later, the ship sunk off the coast of Cape Cod in Massachusetts.
Georgia Railroad, now part of CSX. near Norwood, GA, USA
A CSX train traveled westbound beside US route 278 just west of Norwood GA, while we rested for a few moments under the bridges for Interstate-20. This was during the Bicycle Ride Across Georgia 2014. The rest of the video I took that day will be on my channel soon as BRAG 2014 Day 1.
Modulator Ambiance - To the Colors and Star Spangled Banner - Tinker AFB, OK. 6/6/17
After I heard they do music 3 times a day I had to go listen to one of the blasts. This Modulator 6024 failed, but I could hear ones coming form the main base doing the music. I was told, and he/she was right, that the music isn't even nearly as loud as the main tones. Sorry about the cars ruining Star Spangled Banner. Enjoy!
Columbus, NE Siren Test - ACA Cyclone
This is Cyclone number 2 of 3 in Columbus, NE. In the beginning, you can hear the other sirens start before this one and while it is winding down, you can another Cyclone and the 2001s in attack and the Thunderbolt 1003 on the courthouse running in alert. This Cyclone is located at Howard Blvd and 43rd Ave.
Siren has been replaced.
Federal Signal: 500-AT, Alert - Monticello, Indiana - Part 2
Decided to use my old camera to get a unique perspective on the siren test. I would have edited this into the other video, but you're able to hear the activation tones over the siren's radio, which I thought was pretty cool, so I decided to upload a separate video. It appears the clicking sound I was hearing on this camera was an autofocus issue. Here's the description from the other video for reference:
This is a test of the Federal Signal 500-ATs Jordan Skate Park in Monticello, Indiana filmed on March 21st, 2016. This was my first recording on my new camera so I was pretty excited about that.
The county was about 5 minutes late testing so I called to make sure they were still testing and they were. Pager tones came over my scanner shortly after. Sirens in White County are tested every Monday at 10a.m. EST.
Unfortunately, the other 500-AT on the south side didn't sound for Matt Hackler. The good news is that since he witnessed the failure, we were able to report it to the EMA.

High School Dance Drill Team
Here is Katrina's dance drill team from her new high school - performing to the school's band's version of Funky Town. Katrina just joined the drill team this year (she had never been to a football game before she went to this school!) A drill team is a precision dance team - similar to the Rockettes of Radio City Music Hall. You can see Katrina on the front left side.
The drill team learns new routines throughout the football season. They do each dance twice - once for the home game and once for the away game. To be on a drill team, you need high kicks, the splits, good timing and good memory to do all the formations and routines. Katrina is having a lot of fun with this - football is the big high school sport in Texas.
If you are thinking of auditioning for a drill, cheer or dance team, check out the videos on our channel or website for tips on kicks, the splits, building flexibility and more. You can also
follow us on facebook: or instagram: katrinadance or sloanewilsonn.
We hope you like the performance. Please like, share and sub!

Hermitage, PA ACA Banshee 115 (ex-Beaver Valley) Siren Test 1 Minute Alert (x3) 1-2-20
Basic Information:
Siren: ACA Banshee 115DT (Ex-Beaver Valley Nuclear Siren)
City: Hermitage, PA (Mercer County)
System: Hermitage Siren System/Mercer County Siren System
Location: Hermitage Street Department
Tested: First Thursday of the month at Approximately 10:00 AM
Uses: Tornado Siren
Cycle: 3 1 Minute Alerts
Other Notes: Well a few months ago Luke (CentralPASirens) found this gem in Mercer County that is less than 1 1/2 hours away from me! We planned a meetup on the 2nd and we called a ton of times to make sure they were testing lol. We had a feeling that it would go off late because it went off late last month. Unfortunately Luke could not go however I did meetup with Cameron (Sirens Of NE Ohio) Bruin (StormWarning04) Frankie (Northeast Ohio Sirens, Trains & More) Tom (SRP) and Chris (Fumikrik06)! After the test, a very friendly employee said that there is another siren on the ground next to the garage and when we looked over IT WAS ANOTHER BANSHEE! This one was single tone! You can check this out on Cameron's Instagram or the next BTS which is scheduled to come out in March. This Banshee was also VERY LOUD as it made my ears itch. I'd say this was the loudest siren I've ever heard! Tom and I also went to Columbiana afterwards for their Whelen 2740 so make sure to check that video out when it goes up! Stay tune for more videos and enjoy!
Non Active ACA P-50 & Tornado Siren System Recording West Allis, WI 4/14/10
This is my attempted recording of the ACA P-50 at State Fair Park in West Allis, WI. Despite a scheduled test, this siren and a number of others did not activate with the rest of Milwaukee County's system.
As of last year, Milwaukee County had installed new receiver software to control which sirens are activated and which are not. This non-activation was likely the intended result of using this feature. I also feel it is worth mentioning that I did not hear any sirens to my East, many of which should have been quite audible. It would seem that only sirens in the far western portion of the county were tested.
I did, however, get a decent ambient recording of a few other local sirens that did activate for the test. Among them are:
-ASC T-135AC/DC in Wauwatosa
-2 ACA P-50's in West Allis
-ACA P-15 in Milwaukee, WI
Towards the end, Elm Grove, Wi's T-121's can be heard testing in alert. They are separate from Milwaukee County's sirens.

Buford Dam Flood 2019
Buford Dam Flood 2019..There’s something comforting about the warning sirens at the Buford Dam.
Much like a train whistle, the distant, low-pitched whir becomes a familiar sound to those living nearby.
Placed a few miles apart, each siren starts 15 minutes before water is released from the dam. Captain Cecil Quinley with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, who has worked at the Buford Dam Powerhouse for 11 years, says the sirens run for 38 minutes because water takes a while to travel down the Chattahoochee River.
“But boy is it powerful,” he said.
There’s a reason the facility is called a “powerhouse.” Sure, the dam’s primary purpose was to prevent flooding when it was built in 1946, but it also provides electricity to over 25,000 homes in the area, assists in navigational water levels in waterways further south, promotes a healthy growth and reproductive environments for trout fisheries and -- most obviously -- creates the boating/jet skiing Mecca that is Lake Lanier.

Federal Signal Modulator 2008, Alert: Corydon, Indiana (Harrison Co. Tornado Siren Test, HD)
This is a monthly test of Harrison County's Outdoor Warning Sirens. The system tests the first Saturday of the month at 12 Noon, weather permitting. They have numerous 2001s, some (presumably) newer Model 2s, and this Mod. We haven't found all the sirens on the system so there could be other models or more of a particular one.
This siren is located atop the Harrison County Courthouse, the nearby sirens you hear are 2001-SRNs. It kinda reminds of this other system in Southern Indiana where they also put an electronic siren atop a government building and put 2001s near it but, I can't remember that town's name...darn.
I would have recorded closer, but there is a bunch of trees in the way and there are barely any parking spaces. I also had to record it from the right angle. If I got too close, I wouldn't be able to see it. So after searching for 15-20 minutes for a good spot to set up I finally found a hill that was a block North of the courthouse and stopped there. The hill was almost as tall as the building which made me able to get an eye-level view of this siren.

Nevius Street Dam Removal - Part 2
Part 2 of the Nevius Street Dam removal on the main stem of the Raritan River in central New Jersey, which was completed between July 24-31, 2013. This project was the third of three planned dam removals (the others were the Calco Dam and the Robert Street Dam - see those videos on YouTube also) that re-opened nine miles of historically significant spawning grounds for American shad and other migratory fish on the Raritan River and the lower 1.5 miles of the Millstone River (in addition to numerous tributaries). This fish passage restoration initiative was managed by John W. Jengo of MWH on behalf of the Kinder Morgan, Inc., who is funding the project.
