Boomer here, never ever had a duck and cover drill. The building did have a fallout shelter sign.

My brothers did duck and cover. By the time I started school in the 60's, that nonsense was over.

We were still doing them in the early '60s.

It most certainly was NOT, we had duck and cover all the way up to 1964 in PG co.

^that..after about 2nd,3rd grade, they stopped doing them. Probably stopped a year or so after the Cuban Missile Crisis.

In WMd in 1966, there were no duck-n-cover drills.

Makes sense, after what they saw y'all do with duck-duck-goose there was no way they were going to try duck-n-cover.

Not only did we have duck and cover drills, but we also had to bring in a clean bedsheet and a large can of juice or Hawaiian punch.

No kidding. I heard that the set director for Deliverance checked out that area and they were scared all the way to Georgia.
