Major Kevin Mason (ret.) joined the Center for an interview on June 20, 2023.  He attended Greeneville Middle School in Greeneville, TN from 1967 to 1968.  He earned his M.A. in U.S. history in the UTK history department between 1995 and 1998.  He and his wife plan to retire to Loudon, TN. 

Mason had a long military career starting with the Army ROTC program at Michigan State University in 1974.  He served in the 1st Armored Division in West Germany during the Cold War.  He also served in Korea, and he is particularly passionate about crediting the soldiers who patrolled the DMZ.
