No conversation about musicians who served in the military would be complete with this wild tale about Kris Kristofferson and Johnny Cash.

Rolling Stone called him "one of America's finest songwriters." But before he was a recording artist, Kris Kristofferson, under pressure from his family and following in the footsteps of his Air Force General father before him, joined the US Army.

Kristofferson trained as a Ranger and a helicopter pilot, eventually reaching the rank of Captain while stationed in Germany. But then he received orders to West Point to teach English.

A Rhodes Scholar educated at Oxford, Kristofferson was more interested in creative writing and music than the military, so, rather than accept orders to West Point, Kristofferson chose to leave the Army.

Struggling to support his growing family, he briefly served in the Tennessee National Guard. That's when he did something that would land most service members today in the brig."
