Vietnam War Songs.

What are some of the best/most relevant songs about the Vietnam War or capture the sentiments of that era? I know some pretty good music came out of that generation, and I would like to find some good examples of songs that defined the whole Vietnam War generation. Thanks.

Ohio by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. Not exactly about the war, but definitely captures the era's feelings.
