Sheldon Green was born on Nov. 17, 1931 in Ganado, Texas, to Frank and Opal Green. He had a brother, Kenneth, and a sister, LaVina.
Sheldon grew up riding horses, jumping out of trees, fishing and hunting, playing football, and drawing cartoons. He spent four years in the Navy including a 14-month deployment to Japan and Korea. While on leave, he flew back to Kansas, where he married Pat on June 6, 1951.
After leaving the Navy, he took a job at Boeing while also attending Wichita State. It was during this time that he bought his first plane for $450 complete with an oil leak and a hole in the windshield. He learned to fly and would often use the plane to go duck hunting, landing next to ponds when he spotted flocks of ducks.
