Additional Information: "On the day of his induction into the army March 24, 1958, Elvis Presley said, 'There's not much difference between this and making a movie. In Hollywood, you have to get up at 5 a.m. and be on the set at 6. The only different thing here is that you don't have a limousine.' After reporting for duty about 6:30 a.m. at the Draft Board office in the M&M Building, 198 South Main, he and other inductees would spend much of the day at Kennedy Veterans Hospital for processing and physicals before boarding a bus for Fort Chaffee, Arkansas." - www.elvispresleymusic.com.au
