Societiesn those days, instead of fire drills for school children, we had "Duck and Cover Drills" in school for Atomic Bomb attacks. Up untcorners. And although you probably still don't know it...there are abandoned underground anti-aircraft missile silos near your schools and homes. You won't know it until they are pointed out to you; especially in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San Diego Areas of California.

American children had to crawl under their desks as drills for when atomic bombs were really dropped. They had duck and cover drills. Male American had to register for the draft as their duty as an American citizen. Many people built bomb shelters on their property to have a safe place to go if the area they were in was attacked by bombs.

The Cold War put a lot of people in fear of the nuclear Holocaust. The economy was centered on producing weapons and protection against the eventuality. Some of the creations, such as the public works system of highways and even the internet have benefited millions of people. When you have two of the biggest countries in the world at odds with each other, the conflict is going to affect billions of people.
