Military Voices: Linda and Mark Green


In the summer of 2023, Alaska Public Media partnered with StoryCorps’ Military Voices Initiative which provided a space for veterans, service members, and military families to share their stories.

In this conversation Linda (68) and Mark Green (67) discuss playing music and falling in love while performing in the Air Force Band.


These interviews are recorded by StoryCorps, a national nonprofit whose mission is to preserve and share humanity’s stories in order to build connections between people and create a more just and compassionate world.

StoryCorps’ Military Voices Initiative is made possible by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

Excerpts were selected and produced by Ammon Swenson with help from Lillian Robbins.
