Master Sergeant Caleb Bernard Green III (born September 8, 1964) is an American solo vocalist with the United States Army Band. An accomplished performer, particularly of the US national anthem, Green is often called upon to sing at important sporting events, diplomatic functions and military ceremonies.

His most notable anthem performance was at the 2009 "We Are One" presidential inauguration concert at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. Prior to this his most notable outing was onstage in the TNT production "Christmas in Washington 2008", in which he sang "O Holy Night".{{Cite news|url=http://capitalsoutsider.com/2009/12/26/national-anthem-singer-caleb-green/|title=National Anthem Singer Caleb Green|publisher=Capitals Outsider|date=December 26, 2009|accessdate=September 24, 2013}}{{Cite news|url=https://www.army.mil/article/63864//|title=Soldiers prep for theatrical tour to showcase Army history|publisher=US Army|date=August 18, 2011|access-date=September 24, 2013}} He is also a member of Voices of Service, an acappella group formed by him and three other military members to provide music therapy to ex-military with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
