4:08, the guy is using a U-reely U-control to fly the model. I grew up with them, my dad built models of the P-51, P-38 and the Pitts Special known as "Little Stinker". Took a lot of prize ribbons at the MAAC competitions all over Southern Ontario. My first U-control model was a Ringmaster, with an old engine from one of my dad's models. That would have been around 1970.

Believe it or not, civil defense in the 1950's was less irrational than it seems now. The only way to deliver atom bombs back then was the bomber, and the Soviets had prop-driven "Bear" bombers, which would take many hours to get to the USA and most were quite likely to be shot down beforehand. So it was possible that few enough bombs would hit the USA to make Civil Defense realistic. The era of hundreds of < 1 hour ICBMs, which made civil defense pointless, did not begin until the mid 1960s.

I'm old enough to remember duck-and-cover drills. We did them in my school in Short Hills, New Jersey, until 1968. I was in the second grade at the time. I never really understood why we did them and later, after I joined the Navy, that I understood that they were a complete waste of time. Short Hills is only about fifteen miles from New York, so I knew that we were dead, if the City was destroyed.

1968 I was a senior Asbury Park High in NJ. But 1955-1964 k-8th grade in Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic Elementary School. And in the 60’s we hid under our desks and sometimes had to squat in the hall with the lights out. But they never told us why…we did these things. Our classrooms all had lots of glass windows. The old part of the Bldg had very tall glass windows and the newer building more rectangular windows. If a bomb had hit we would have been toast and jelly.

@@jari2018 ......JARI......My guess is that society as a whole has for the most part forgotten the fear of nuclear attack which is a little funny to me because countries are holding on to more nukes than ever (although they may claim otherwise). Also I am guessing the "power" of the new generation nukes makes sirens, bomb shelters, drills, written safety flyers , completely useless given the new intensity of these weapons. It is estimated that a minimum of 1 million old Cold war home bomb shelters still exist in the USA. There are always stories about someone renovating an old home and accidently find a sealed off, paved over bunker,,,,,,,,usually filled with water leakage.

As the fireball rises the distance between you and it increases, so the direct radiation intensity falls. After 2 mins it has fallen enough to be relatively safe. But shortly after will arrive the radioactive fallout in the form of ash dropping like snow. So there is a short window of time to try to get out of Dodge. But don't move too soon.

I love these old information films, they provide such a wonderful insight into the thinking and attitudes of a time before a lot of us were born, it’s also interesting to compare the nuclear war advice to the instructional training I received in my service career, and, obviously, the information is so much different, not bad information about this era just different, mainly because we understand how radioactive ☢️ contamination and its effects behave and what can be done to help us protect ourselves and our families, although being in Great Britain 🇬🇧 we would have less chance to survive, not because we would be hit by more warheads but because we have less area to live in and escape to, there is less distance between populated areas that would be less or unaffected by nuclear weapons release, oh well, nothing you can do about it.

In the early 1950ies nuclear warfare was completely different than in the ICBM age beginning in the mid sixties. The Soviets had only a few dozen bombs and could only deliver them by bombers. It made a LOT of sense to know about civil defense in those days. It could be the difference between being killed of surviving.

@50zcarsman Sergeants are senior enlisted personnel - probably an E-7 or E-8. In the Navy, that would be a Chief or Senior Chief, respectively. An old saying in the Navy is, "If you want to know something, ask a Chief." The "two-minute danger period" from radiation is true for a true airburst. In 1952, after the detonation of the first Hydrogen Bomb, "Ivy MIke", helicopter crews rushed in to retreive test samples right after the blast - before the fallout could start dropping.

They didn't know about electromagnetic pulse (EMP) effects, but weren't as vulnerable to it as we'd be, either, due to lower technology. Handkerchiefs as filters against rad. dust?! And I wonder why nobody planned one o' them "submarine bombs" -- the fog seems a legitimate part of a diversified attack plan.

The timing of the demise of the Civil Defense in our country seemed to be around the same time this Mutually Assured Destruction treaty came about. I think the top dogs in governments here, Russia & China have advanced shelters for themselves but I am not so sure about all the rest of the people who don't have a voice in launching a nuclear war. Just hope it doesn't happen and some Paranoid Fool doesn't have the capability to access or launch such weapons. Once one weapon is fired in anger, the end result, will be the end.... Period!

Don’t know WTF you are bitching about, it was a compliment, he said that it’s like a women, “never underestimate it power or strength, words to that effect, might be backhanded compliment, but still a compliment, personally I know to never underestimate a woman, they are strong, and resilient, but unfortunately totally over sensitive, and able to read whatever they want into anything. Signed a male veteran of the United Kingdom armed forces. P.S, how many days did you serve for to be accorded the title of veteran?

While some isotopes do have that kind of half life, you'll notice that Hiroshima and Nagasaki had been rebuilt within about 20 years. After the main blast, the biggest problem from radiation is fallout. If you've got to move, the time to do is after the blast, but before the fallout

I was taught in my school days in the late '50s that the dangerous fallout radiation after an atomic blast would be half its strength in 2 weeks. Later we developed the dirty bombs with half lives of thousands of years. That's why they dispensed with any idea that we could survive a nuclear war.

Although still a possibility, IMHO, deployment of nuclear weapons, as depicted, is obsolete and highly unlikely. There's an old saying: "To the victor go the spoils". Historically, wars have been fought over land and resources. Most "victors" would hesitate spoiling the spoils (resources) unnecessarily. Then the alternative would be to use nuclear weapons to cause the least amount of spoilage possible. IMO, the best way to accomplish that goal would be by using most of the nuclear weapons arsenal as Electro-Magnetic Pulse (EMP) weapons detonated high in the upper reaches of the Earth's atmosphere. There's no mushroom clouds, blast, or even appreciative amounts of radioactive fallout. The destruction is primarily focused on anything that relies on micro-circuitry to function. In the modern world that would cause widespread infrastructure collapse in transportation, manufacturing, and utilities. When that happens, society will surely break down into chaos. No atomic scorched earth, but just as effective. However, most people, including their political leadership, just can't wrap their heads around the concept, thus making their societies even more vulnerable.

Civil Defense is not "pointless" with the advent of the even faster SLBMs. As, considering the worst case scenario - a surprise attack during periods of calm and peace between nuclear powers- everyone that had a well stocked ~ 80 day basement blast/fallout shelter that lived outside major cities and away from military infrastructure would survive without much in the way of an increase in cancer incidence. On the other hand without civil defense/emergency preparedness most people would.
