According to what my book says on module 08.01: Roots of the Cold War What Were Some of the Psychological Effects of Living Through the Cold War? As you might imagine, living through so many years of conflict and competition, with the threat of deadly war lurking in the shadows, took its toll on all people. Fear of a nuclear war was especially difficult to forget. A Culture of Fear Throughout the 1950s, Americans prepared for a possible nuclear war. Public buildings with basements were designated as community bomb shelters. Small, yellow-and-black signs on the outside of a building told people that it was a "safe" place to go if there was a nuclear attack. Some Americans had bomb shelters installed in their basements, or under their back yards. These shelters were stocked with water and food to last for weeks, or even months. In school, students practiced air raid drills, just as you practice fire drills. At the sound of a special siren, students and adults would go down to a basement, crouch in the hallway with their arms over their heads, or simply curl up under their desks. The U.S. government put out comic books and short videos showing a turtle hiding in its shell to teach children how to "Duck and Cover" if a bomb was coming. So my answer was B (duck and cover drill)
