Disposable Heroes

This song is about using soldiers as cannon fodder in the war. It is about the complete disregard the country in question has of its loyal troops, its heroes.

"Disposable Heroes" is a segment from the book Fahrenheit 451.

On the Master Of Puppets demo tapes, the bridge section was much different. Though it was very fast, the bridge section was taken and used as the bridge section of "Damage, Inc." which appears as the final track on the album.
