Nice. But like I said, kinda scary that the video was done for real. It's not like "duck and cover" will help you when an A-bomb drops... but I guess it's a way to keep the children from being afraid, and that's what the purpose was, right?

Yeah that was pretty much it. The goverment could not come up with a good idea to protect people so they put that out to let everyone think they stood a chance

It is pretty sorry, what's worse is that 50 years later they still have the same problem
