I don't remember seeing that film but I sure remember the bomb drills and getting under my desk in the middle 50's.

Doug, I remember the duck and cover drills and I also remember when they stopped around 1969 or so. Another thing I remember well were all the triangle shaped, yellow and black "Fallout Shelter" signs around the city. The one I would see most frequently as a kid was by C.R. Anthony at NW 25th(?) and May Ave.

They were def. showing this and having bomb drills in the mid 60s when I was in grade school. I also remember the yellow fallout shelter signs.Duck & Cover!!!! They would line the kids up in the halls and start the siren and everyone would, Duck & Cover! Sometimes they would sound the alarm and all the kids in the class room would get up and walk in single file out in to the hall and Duck & Cover! Then sometime we would just Duck & Cover! right there by our desk. But it was always,Duck & Cover!

What a time in history. These were the days when the milkman still delivered to your door in bottles. I will never forget the clanking of those glass bottles in those little metal 4 pak holders.
