Anyway, the planners figured that having a famous entertainer appear on all broadcasting stations after an attack would ease panic.
Obviously, this would be taped. They picked Arthur Godfrey.
So, if war broke out in 1985, Arthur Godfrey wearing a 1960s suit would appear in black and white on your TV screens and say "I'm Authur Godfrey and everything is going to be OK.
Thanks for the link.
