Jacobs, Bo. "Atomic kids: Duck and cover and atomic alert teach American children how to survive atomic attack." Film & History: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Film and Television Studies 40, no. 1 (2010): 25-44. "The experiences of American kids in the Cold War were very different from those of their parents.
