Jimi Hendrix: Fort Campbell
built 130 days ago
Hendrix got into trouble with the law twice for riding in a stolen car. He was given a choice between spending two years in prison or joining the army. Hendrix chose the latter and enlisted on May 31, 1961. After completing boot camp, he was assigned to the 101st Airborne Division and stationed in Fort Campbell, Kentucky. His commanding officers and fellow soldiers considered him to be a sub-par soldier: he slept while on duty, had little regard for regulations, required constant supervision, and showed no skill as a marksman. For these reasons, his commanding officers submitted a request that Hendrix be discharged from the military after he had served only one year.

Jimi is commonly known to his followers by the name "God"-just ask any You-tuber. Indeed, Jimi created the universe in 3 minutes and 51 seconds, with a 29 minute solo in the middle. His scorn and wrath once led the Immaculates into the land of Nader for a fortnight, while they disseminated their views on the nature of sponges. It was at this same time that he lived in castles made of sand; eventually, though, these slipped into the sea. As the Ozone layer began to melt itself, God grew tired of his position, and ceded the throne to Rich Little.

In regular visits to the base psychiatrist at Fort Campbell, Ky., in spring 1962, Hendrix complained that he was in love with one of his squad mates and that he had become addicted to masturbating, Cross writes. Finally, Capt. John Halbert recommended him for discharge, citing his "homosexual tendencies."
