During the time this song was made(1960's), hippies refered to the army as tin soldiers and were highly against them. In the song, it talks about how there is no pride for them when they all die and one is left.In another song of the era, being "Ohio", it says "Tin soldiers and Nixon Coming" (Nixon being the president).
