Among other things, today, 1 March, is International Civil Defence Day. So, some heraldry on this theme :
Moldova : Civil Protection and Special Situations Service.
Norway : Civil Defence.
Russia : Ministry of Emergency Situations ('Emercom').
There don't seem to be many civil defence-related coats of arms around. Does anyone know of any others?

Re: International Civil Defence Day
Searched and found the old cap badge of the IDF civil defense units (in use until about '92), which included a shield, though technically a badge. Similar to the Norwegian example.
The current shoulder patches of the home front command have the orange background with blue triangle combo in somewhat pseudo-heraldic (or hard to blazon) fashion e.g. The training base
