An article in the New York Times came out about Jason Everman. What an interesting story.

When he arrived for basic training at Fort Benning, his hair was cut, his nose ring was removed; he was as anonymous as every other recruit. At 26, he wasn’t an old-timer, but he was close to it. Training had been going on for about a month when Cobain committed suicide and Everman’s rock past was discovered, which gave more ammunition to the drill sergeants. There was a lot of “O.K., rock star, give me 50.” Everman insists he didn’t expect anything else.

What an awesome guy. If you've never heard the band he was in after Soundgarden, Mindfunk, I would def advise you to check them out.
