Back in the day, Duck and Cover was a method of personal protection against atomic attacks which the US government taught to school-age children. 

A "Duck and Cover" film was made and shown at schools across the US.  The film opens with Bert the Turtle who is attacked by a monkey holding a stick of dynamite.  Thank goodness for "duck and cover" and a blast-proof shell--Bert survived the blast.  (You can view the original film here.)  Besides 10 minutes of entertainment, the only real effect this "training" had on the US population was a state of paranoia.

Fast forward several years into the present...  The US government has created a modern-day "duck and cover" with these "Be Informed" warning signs.  If you take away the captions below the signs, a person could interpret the signs in any which way they please.  Here are the HCJNW's humorous interpretations of the warning signs. 

With these signs I may not have a clue on what to do during a terrorist attack or "Orange" threat, but I'll at least have a good laugh.
