First Coast Military Life

About First Coast Military Life

Jacksonville and Northeast Florida are proudly rooted in military tradition — we’re honored to be America’s premier military community. A weekly radio talk show and podcast dedicated to the stories, challenges, and triumphs of our region’s veterans, active-duty service members, their families, and the community that supports them. Airing every Sunday at 8 a.m. on FM 104.5 WOKV, and available anytime online and via podcast, First Coast Military Life explores the full landscape of military and post-military life. From finding a purposeful life post their military journey to transitioning out of service to navigating VA benefits and highlighting organizations offering essential support, our mission is to inform, connect, and empower. We also shine a spotlight on local events, community initiatives, and programs that strengthen bonds between the military, veterans, and the wider First Coast community. If it matters to military families and those who support them, we’ll talk about it—on First Coast Military Life. Our goal is to be a trusted resource and a strong voice for those who serve, have served, and the communities that stand behind them!
