This is a song about a guy who fought in the Korean War, and is somewhat "shell-shocked" about the ordeal.
He seems to regret bombing the civilians, but he admits that at the time, he wasn't thinking about whether it was "wrong or right", probably because he was quite young.
Now, as a veteran, he gets more recognition than he wants. He is not proud of his days in the war.
