In the 50's - 60's seem like at least 1 motel in every town along old 66 had one or similar.

I seem to remember "huddling" under my desk at school once a month, during the late 50s early 60s after something like that was shot into space. Something about "Soviet death rays and atom bombs from space", lol. Not funny at the time, but great for "bomb shelter" salesmen.
Looking for Tide Water/ Tide Water-Associated/ Tidewater items

Bob...I remember having bomb drills at our school in the late 60's. Ha, haven't thought about that in a long time. Like putting your head under the desk was going to help. And..we were in the middle of farmland....can't believe we were very high on the target list in Russia. Wow, when you look back how ignorant we were.
