Mark Libgot graduated from Secondary School No. 43 in Riga. In 1969 he entered Technical Communications School No. 1 and, upon assignment, began work at the Eastern Telephone Hub of the Riga City Telephone Network. In November 1970 he was drafted for active military service, from which he was discharged in May 1971 for health reasons.
