A generation ago, young men were drafted for military service. The draft ended in the 1970's under President Nixon.
One of those young men drafted was the legendary Elvis. He joined the US Army on this day in 1958.
He could have fought the draft with legal gimmicks and technicalities, starting with the fact that he was already 23!
Nevertheless, he went, did his duty and came back to more success.
Well done Elvis!
