Elvis Military Induction Zippo

— 🎖️The King’s Duty: A Tribute to Elvis Presley’s 1958 Induction —

On March 24, 1958, the world watched as Elvis Presley, the King of Rock ’n’ Roll, traded his microphone for a military uniform.

This 2008 limited-edition Zippo commemorates the 50th anniversary of that pivotal moment — when a music icon stepped into service, embodying humility and dedication beyond fame.

The design features a laser-engraved portrait of a young Elvis dressed in his military uniform, rendered on a sleek Black Ice Zippo. Each lighter is individually numbered on the right side, part of a 10,000-piece limited production.

The collectible comes in a special presentation box printed with a vintage-style image of Elvis in uniform, set against a softly faded American flag — a nostalgic homage to both the man and the era.

During his two years of service, Elvis received no special treatment, serving as a regular soldier until his honorable discharge in March 1960. It was during this time that he studied karate, later incorporating its movements into his legendary stage performances.

Though Elvis passed away in 1977, his spirit continues to live on — not only through his music but also through enduring memorabilia such as the Elvis Zippo series, cherished by fans and collectors alike.
