Annotation
This undated country track, "Here's Love to You From South Viet Nam" (Holt Record Company # H-45-101) mainly dealt with the plight of the soldier - a soldier wrote home, sending his love from Saigon. Most tracks just refer to "Vietnam", but this one opted for the more specific "South Vietnam" location. The song also expressed patriotism and support for the cause of freedom: "I'm doing my job for Uncle Sam....I must keep this world from becoming enslaved".
