Green (Liberating Alaska)

Captain Green was one of the U.S. Marine Corps who liberated Siknazuak, Alaska from pro-Soviet occupiers in June, 1929.

After the marines successfully took Siknazuak, Sgt. Eddie Houlihan and Corporal George Veliotis brought an American resident of Siknazuak to Green. This American, a moonshiner, was willing to show the marines where the Bolsheviks had buried the people they'd killed. The whole group followed the moonshiner to a series of graves that looked more like trenches. The moonshiner explained that past the four-foot depth, the ground was frozen solid.

Upon seeing the graves, Green announced that they needed to find photographer so all the world would know what the Soviets really were. He also stated that the marines would be there to protect the town from remaining Reds in the hills. Green and the moonshiner left to find more senior officers.
