Very interesting.. I remember the 1st one. The third I either saw or one just like it when I was very young. The 2nd i like even though I do not understand one word. It serves to help us remember we are all innocent children, no matter what culture and what god.
The first two really shows that era,, a silly cartoon followed by a training film that scared the hell out of kids. Saw one at breakfast then go to school and see the warning. Plus what good was leaning up, under anything lol
