I was 9 years old when it happened. I don't remember many air raid (nuclear bomb) drills, and we were in the Bay Area so it seems they would have had them there. Maybe I just don't remember.

But I remember the assassination. We were on break in the school playground, and one of the 3rd grade teachers ran by on the way to the administrative officers screaming and crying. I don't recall if we got the rest of the day off. But it was a big deal and a big shock.
