“We did the “duck and cover” drills in the early sixties in our grammar school, too.’
Duck and cover from nuclear attack or tornadoes is one thing. Terrorizing young children like this is insane.
dd—I agree with you. My post to Working Class Filth was a response to the memory of our atomic bomb Cold War days, when we thought life could end at any moment in a blinding flash.
As for these birdbrains in Tennessee, they should have been fired when they got off the bus when it arrived back in town.
Especially since everyone knew it was just a drill. (I remember being amused at the thought that covering over heads under our desks would somehow help us in the event of a Russian ICBM attack).
