Songs were written alluding to Vietnam, or those connections were assumed.
"Purple Haze," by Jimi Hendrix, a former "Screaming Eagles" paratrooper,
had references to the purple smoke used at landing zones. Phrases from
the Beatles' "Magical Mystery Tour," such as "Coming to take you away,
dying to take you away," had special meaning for Marines at Khe Sanh.
