I remember, I guess it was the early 1960s or maybe very late 1950s, going to the local Alabama National Guard Armory one Sunday afternoon and getting it on a sugar cube. The vaccine was a pink liquid that had been put on the sugar cube. I do not recall knowing anyone that had polio, but it seems like everyone was very concerned about it.
