Pretty clever lyrics, albeit a little dark for my taste, nice job though. Sounds like the kind of song the Dead Kennedy's might play if they were around for World War 2.

@ Patleh,
I also like the lyrics (which are yours and which are your dad's friend's?) I'd like to see you expand on them instead of repeating. As far as the solo goes it would be cool to use an electric guitar with a lot of feedback and effects to create the sounds of battle like divebombers and explosions. (don't know if you have an electric or the experience). Now that the war is long over and your dad's friend and sooooo many vets have passed on it would be interesting if the song ended on a long whimsicle sad sustained note. Just some thoughts.

a lot of people tell me i hold it wrong =[. but when my father started teaching me to play guitar, i guess he never corrected me and it's now second nature to hold it like that.
also i'm making an electric version(hopefully tonight or soon) but my chord is broken, getting a new one tonight hopefully.
