During a 1975 Las Vegas show, Elvis abruptly stopped singing Suspicious Minds after spotting an older man in a worn military jacket. He ordered security to bring him backstage, shocking 20,000 fans. The man was Robert Mitchell, a Vietnam veteran Elvis had unknowingly searched for since 1969. His cousin, Marcus Riley, had died in Vietnam and wrote Elvis a final letter praising a brave sergeant who saved him—Robert. When Elvis saw Marcus’s jacket on Robert, both men broke down. Elvis thanked him publicly, honored him onstage, and later created a foundation for veterans—all to keep a promise to his fallen cousin.
