Notes: Plot very similar to the anti-war song One Tin Soldier by Dennis Lambert and Brian Potter, first recorded by the Canadian group Original Caste in 1969: competing expeditions on Mars squabble to claim the precious contents of a sealed vault, only to discover the treasure within is of the intangible sort.
