@theoriginalpeachpie I got to this page from an embedded vid on another forum.

@HamonLord Yupper. But....but I guess I find just about every decade interesting in one regard or another. So.....I wondering, how'd you end up watching this vid? I can't even remember how I got to this page, lol.

@theoriginalpeachpie the 50's were something, weren't they?

@HamonLord Well as far as I read, yes. And also a big hint is that this same video appears on the right side of this screen in the "related video" section and it's named "Bert the Turtle: Duck and Cover (1951)". So as long as that's correct, then yes, lol.

We did this in the US when I was growing up.
They left out a few important words,
"Duck and Cover
and
Kiss your Ass Good-Bye."

The point of the video isn't to save yourself from "the atom bomb" its purpose to give people some comfort of "a plan" in there last moments. What should the government say, bend over and get ready to be boiled alive. Or perhaps the government should endorse massive panic. Propaganda is needed in war time to calm people, it is important for a country fighting a war overseas to maintain some normalcy in war time. This harmless propaganda is better than the dehumanizing the enemy stuff.
