Whether interpreted as being anti or pro war. Gimme Shelter by the Stones and We Wont Be Fooled Again by the Who seem to be two of the more popular war time singles since the 70s. Jimi Hendrix-Voodoo Chile fits in there somewhere? But that's to controversial, so I would pick his version of The National Anthem on guitar.

Marvin Gaye related to the war time era of the 70s and the struggles of the inner cities and so on, with singles like Whats Going On and Inner City Blues for example.

This one by Buffalo Springfield fits the venue well.
