Elvis Presley "My Baby Left Me / I Want You, I Need You, I Love You" 7" RCA Victor 47-6540 Nipper Logo ~ For U.S. Army G.I.'s Only Made in Germany ~ EXTREMELY RARE ~ NO Reserve!
The quick checklist if you already know about "Army Label" Elvis Presley Records:

• Little Nipper Dog Logo (Check)
• Made in U.S.A. on Label (Check)
• Stamped "Manufactured in Germany" in Dead Wax (Check)
• Gray plastic tri-spindle adapter reading "Bei dickem Zapfen Mittelstück herausdrücken" (Check)

The term "Army Label" is used to describe German pressings of Elvis records made exclusively for the U.S. Armed Forces stationed in West Germany. The easy key recognition is the logo is the classic RCA Victor Nipper Dog, instead of the round circle RCA Lightning Bolt logo used for standard German pressings. They also left the wording "MADE IN U.S.A." on the label, even though it is stamped "Manufactured in Germany" on both sides in the dead wax/runout area.
They are some of the RAREST singles to come out of Germany, and are highly sought after by collectors!
