Vietnam War songs: [ Ссылка ]
Michael Blessing - otherwise known as Michael Nesmith from the group The Monkees - performed as a solo artist on this 1965 single. The track "The New Recruit" was a cover of the Tom Paxton satirical song "The Willing Conscript" about a draftee off to war, who wanted to learn how to kill in order to fulfill his duty. Produced by Bob Krasnow and Sam Ashe.
"Sergeant I'm a draftee
And I've just arrived in camp
Oh, I'll need instructions...
I've never killed before...
Oh please be patient sergeant...
The hand grenade is something I don't understand
You've got to throw it quickly...
Does it blow a man to pieces?"
