I recall a favorite song of our Air Force guy stationed in Thailand at that time being 'Save Your Heart for Me' (walk along the shore with someone new, etc.)
There was that Ricky Nelson thing "I'm a travelin' man" mentioning girls in every port.
Wasn't "Wichita Lineman" a favorite of guys in forced exile?
Got the guts to do "Ballad of the Green Berets"?

Well, just some ideas that I hope jog somebody else's memory.
