The late C&W crooner Don Williams. He enlisted and showed up in Japan at our Army Security Agency base about a year after I got there. He had his guitar, and dreamed of making it to the Grand Ole Opry, which he eventually did. He won lots of awards, and even had a big following in Britain and elsewhere. He always remained a regular guy. He was buds with Burt Reynolds, odly enough.

A lot of singers were in the business.

Country -Willie Nelson – Air Force, Johnny Cash – Air Force, Kris Kristofferson – Army, George Strait – Army, Gene Autry – Air Force, George Jones – Marines, Conway Twitty – Army, Roger Miller – Army, Jerry Reid – Army, Hank Thompson – Navy.

Jazz - Tony Bennett – Army, Dean Martin – Army, Sammy Davis – Army.

Rock and Hip Hop - Jerry Garcia – Army, Shaggy – Marines, MC Hammer – Navy. Hendrix - Army

There are a lot more, but this is a start. A lot of performers were in WW II and Korea in particular.
