Notes:

What is this song about? Well in James' own words on 12/31/85: "This song's about kids
being forced into the fucking army....fucking bullshit"
Was only played live with Cliff Burton twice: 09/14/85 and 12/31/85.
On June 3rd, 2006 the entire song was played for the first time since 12/31/1985.
(In 2004 plays there was a section in the middle that wasn't played)
Included in the video game Guitar Hero: Metallica.

Different Versions:

October 27th, 2007 - Shoreline Amphitheatre - The song was played acoustically for the Bridge School Benefit and although the
lyrics remained the same, the music was completely rearranged - so much so that if you didn't know the words you wouldn't
even recognize the song! James said before playing it: "Let's see if you can figure this one out..this is good!"
October 28th, 2007 - Shoreline Amphitheatre - The song was played acoustically for the Bridge School Benefit, same as Oct 27th.
