In Australia, attended high school during the 1980s. We were listening to:
Frankie Goes to Hollywood - Two Tribes
If any member of your family should die while in the shelter, put them outside, but tag them first for identification purposes
Nena - 99 Luftballons
99 Düsenflieger
Jeder war ein großer Krieger
Hielten sich für Captain Kirk
Es gab ein großes Feuerwerk
(99 balloons [Edit] jet fighters, then there was a big war, they thought they were Captain Kirk, there were big fireworks)
Sting - Russians
How can I save my little boy
From Oppenheimer’s deadly toy?
What might save us, me and you,
Is if the Russians love their children too
At school, we were taken to see Atomic Cafe, Miracle Mile, and they showed us Threads and The Day After on newfangled video tape. Wrote essays, analysed characters, situations, etc.
I’ve just recently found out that I’m high-functioning autistic, but even so, it’s only been in the past few years that me and my schoolmates, after lots of therapy, have been able to overcome trauma and fears of dying in a nuclear war at any second.
