Free standing?  If not, I would drive something into the ground with slightly less diameter than the inside diameter of the mast and telescope the mast over the driven stake.  Then it won’t move at the bottom if it’s guyed.

My idea is to drive a support pipe into the ground and mount the military mast to that.  My question is, what do I use to mount the military mast to the pipe driven into the ground? Tie-wraps, bubble gum and duct tape fall short of the requirement.
