being an elvis fan part 5


if your mad about elvis as i am. then as a fan why don.t we let others know just what the man was really like, elvis might be a singer but he done his part in other things like going in to the army like any other man, lets see what happen?...

just before christmas 1957, elvis received his draft notification and although he collected the notice himself to avoid publicity, the press soon got wind of it. he told reporters that he was happy the situation was finally resolved and that he was happy to return something to the country that had given him so much.
two weeks before elvis went into the us army he flew to california to record the soundtrack for another film KING CREOLE, then filming started. i seen this film and it really good, im not just saying that because im a elvis fan. see it yourself then let me know what you think,.... right lets get back to what we was talking about,
two weeks after shooting had finished, elvis was finally inducted into the us army. he arrived early at the draft board, he was assigned to the second armored division at fort hood in texas for basic training, although elvis was homesick. he kept his feelings to himself and buckled down to learning how to be a good soldier,
elvis done two years in the army. when he came out he went back to doing what he loved best, singing..... more about this later in part six, ........................
