Living and presumably raising a family in the US during the Cold war, were you ever genuinely afraid that you could wake up to a Nuclear war?

I am not any type of surgeon/doctor, but have hard wax removed a couple of times a year for almost ten years (in NL & UK) so I'm somewhat familiar - in a comment which should surprise no one, I can personally vouch for what the professional man says

Always been told to never use q-tips, DEFINITELY not anything else sharp - use good quality olive oil and it softens the wax to the point where a professional can easily clean it, or sometimes enough will just come out where my hearing is back

This is a seriously good film, glad to hear it does justice to the real experiences of people who went through it

There was always the threat of Nuclear war, I'm sure many people alive at the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis will have had their hearts in their mouths. I do wonder though how seriously people took the threat of an escalation.
