For me this thread is about draft and 1968, and Woodstock and Kent State U., my older brother generation showing the way....inspiration and strength to handle what I got a few years later.

...I always remember, my friend in army service in 1973/4, got a lecture with the kaptein doing a red-in-the-face rant about John Lennon's Imagine.


Not one of the well-known Byrds songs.

Draft Morning​

The Byrds

Sun warm on my face, I hear you
Down below movin' slow
And it's morning
Take my time this morning, no hurry
To learn to kill and take the will
From unknown faces
Today was the day for action
Leave my bed to kill instead
Why should it happen?
