March 29, 1955
I was born in the time of the Cuban missile crises. I grew up in Oklahoma and people built nuclear bomb shelters in their backyards, that doubled as tornado shelters. (Oklahoma is in the central part of the United States and thus a part of tornado alley, for those of you not familiar with that part of the country.) We were very concerned with the old Soviet Union in the late 50's and early 60's.
