Social Sciences - Social Science, Sociology, Ethics, etc. / Military (UK specific) | | English term or phrase: ARP warden | I know they were the air raid wardens from the ARP, part of the Home Front, but how to render this in Spanish?
Agentes/vigilantes anti ataques aéreos??
Any suggestions welcome, there's a good definition in Wikipedia. |

Explanation:
Hola, la entrada en wikipedia proporciona información muy útil para la traducción.
Yo propongo dos alternativas, la segunda utilizando una nota al pie de página. Son éstas:
- Sin nota a pie de página: vigilantes de la organización ARP (Air Raid Precautions, ‘Precauciones a tomar en caso de ataque aéreo’).
2º Con nota a pie de página: los vigilantes de ARP
La nota tendría este texto:
ARP es la sigla de la organización «Air Raid Precautions» (precauciones a tomar en caso de ataque aéreo), creada en el Reino Unido en 1924 para proteger a los civiles del peligro de los bombardeos. Los vigilantes de ARP sirvieron en el frente interno en Inglaterra durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. (N. del T.)
Saludos
