A parody of "Take This Hammer" (Lansdale 1976) advocates nothing less than the complete abandonment of combat service.

from Songs of the Vietnam war: an occupational folklore tradition
Take my rifle,
Take it to the Chieu Hoi (*)
Tell 'em I'm gone, boy,
Tell 'em I'm gone...
(*) Enemy soldiers who have surrendered under a U.S. psychological warfare program directed at the Vietcong.
