Yes he was drafted into the US Army and received his official draft notice (it was hand delivered to him at his home being Graceland) the 3rd week of December 1957. Elvis was honorably discharged in 1960.
Elvis Presley was conscripted (drafted) into the military. He believed it was his patriotic duty to serve his country, and he did not believe that his fame and status should be reason to exempt him from the draft. He could probably have gotten out of the draft had he chosen to.
14 months

No, as he was born on January 8, 1935 and the war ended long before he would have been eligible. However, Elvis did serve in the US Army from 1958 through 1960 when he was honorably discharged.
