“Most people my age remember well the air-raid drills in school, under the desk with our heads tucked between our legs.”

You caught that, too. The last time I remember doing a duck and cover was in ‘65/66 school year and it had long been a joke. He didn’t start kindergarten until the following year. He left for Indonesia after that and didn’t come back until ‘71 and no one was doing those by then.
He also got it wrong about “heads tucked between our legs” because you knelt on the floor, put your head on the floor, and your hands over the back of your head. Unless you were a contortionist, it’d have been a bit difficult to do it his way.
