You say this like they didn't make Pearl Harbor movies in its wake. This has always been done.

I'm curious what you think about this song... U2 & Green Day - The Saints Are Coming
They managed to capitalize on an American tragedy and be an anti-war song at the same time.
Is this low hanging fruit? Was it exploitation that they debuted it in the Superdome for the Saints return?

Kristofferson took a deep inhale and leaned against the wall, still vibrating with adrenaline. He looked over at Willie as if to say, “Don’t say a word.” Then his eyes found me. “You know what Waylon Jennings said about guys like him?” he whispered.
I shook my head.
“They’re doin’ to country music what pantyhose did to finger-frickin’.”
Awesome!

The worst ones. I revitalized their career.

Awesome!
Fwiw, Waylon's quote was about Garth Brooks.
That is way more appropriate.
After Garth, country became generic oldies rock with a southern drawl. Shania Twain finished the evolution by adding generic R&B with a drawl.
The last new country artist I enjoyed, was Dwight Yoakam. The genre has been shite since the early 90's

Not a war protest song, FWIW.

Speaking of Kris, here in IMHO is how you can do a Country tribute, hold the cheese. This is a tune (love or hate the artists) that memorialized a little known and brutal battle in Vietnam. I've met the guy it was inspired by and he's about the coolest f#%ker on the planet.
