Loud rock'n roll as a psychological weapon during war or other?

Did we ever do that? and if so, when? I think I remember something about Panama and using loud music to drive someone out of his hiding.

    I know it was used in Vietnam, speakers mounted on tanks, but I thinkit was for the morale of US troops. (you could still class that as a weapon)

    What you are thinking of is that when Noriega was holed up in the Vatican it was used to drive him up the wall, for sleep deprivation.
