In kindergarten (late 50s), duck and cover was no big deal, but I was afraid of the air raid siren. I had afternoon half-day school, and it would sometimes (probably once a week) go off when I was walking to school nearby. The sound still kind of haunts me when our local tornado siren goes off. Not afraid anymore, just brings back memories.
