ssggates Posted October 2, 2017 Share #1 Posted October 2, 2017 My wife and I took a trip to Memphis last weekend and dropped by Graceland and the new entertainment complex "Elvis Presley's Memphis". One of the large exhibits showcases artifacts from Elvis' years in the army and I was pleasantly surprised to see some items that I do not remember being on display at the old facility. Among them are his issued M1 and ike jacket along with numerous documents. I love what they have done to the complex and I highly recommend a visit for any Elvis or music fans out there!

Backtheattack Posted October 3, 2017 Share #3 Posted October 3, 2017 The museum at Grafenwöhr/Bavaria has a room dealing with Elvis and his time at Grafenwöhr, with pictures from the "Micky Bar" where he often played the piano, and other items from his time here. A "must visit" for any Elvis fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

militariaone Posted October 5, 2017 Share #5 Posted October 5, 2017 Here's a few Elvis related pictures from the Kultur- und Militärmuseum Grafenwöhr. I believe the named Elvis uniform they have on exhibit is a recreation. But the piano is legit:-) V/r Lance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backtheattack Posted January 7, 2018 Share #6 Posted January 7, 2018 Lance, visited this museum last year. The piano is from the Micky-bar where he did his surprising singing while at Grafenwöhr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
