RIP Col. Jones Who Made Elvis A Sergeant
Col. Thomas S. Jones, who promorted his Jeep driver, private E. Presley to sergeant, died at the age of 95 due to the complications from a stroke.
In the late 1950s he supervised Presley, who he said had "earned his promotion the old-fashioned way, as a member of a combat unit, not with some sort of army entertainment group." "I don't know how good a musician Elvis was," Mr. Jones wrote in a published letter to the St. Petersburg Times in 1977, a week after Presley died, "but as his battalion commander I can testify that he was a top-notch soldier, a credit to his parents, to his outfit, to his country."
