Elvis Presley signs autographs for fans in Germany while out riding a bike ca. 1959
When Elvis joined the U.S. Army in 1958, he was already one of the most famous names in world entertainment. He served for two whole years as a regular soldier although he was offered to get enlisted in Special Services and entertain troops, which further helped improve his naughty image that resulted from his provocative performances. This picture was taken while he was stationed in Germany, where he later met his future wife Priscilla Beaulieu but unfortunately also picked up his prescribed drugs addiction which ultimately led to his death. This is where it all began, really.
