"What's in a Picture?" piece on a 1952 photo by Carroll Thayer Berry of schoolchildren in Rockland posing in the "duck and cover" position, as they were advised to do in case of an atomic blast. The photo is one of a series of photographs of civil defense drills that Berry took in Camden and Rockport, and which are now housed at the Penobscot Marine Museum in Searsport.
