It was on this date in 1958 when Elvis Presley reported for duty as a soldier in the United States army. And when was the last time anyone in the entertainment industry served in the military?
While some deserve much credit travelling the world for entertaining our troops, all too often we hear of the Hollywood crowd badmouthing efforts to defend our country and way of life. How quickly they take advantage all those who sacrifice so that "the beautiful people" can enjoy lounging around their swimming pools in Malibu and Beverly Hills. Some even embrace our enemies like Hugo Chavez.
It was a more innocent and appreciative world fifty two years ago.
