Vinny,
You jogged my memory with that Conelrad poster of something I experienced in grade school in the late 1950s.
I had to Google it to find the program, but it was called "duck-and-cover". The idea being that in the event of a nuclear attack and you saw the mushroom cloud out the window, just 'duck and cover' under your desks!

73 to all, and if you see a mushroom cloud......
