In this compelling episode of Security Halt!, host Deny Caballero sits down with Doug O’Connell, a former Green Beret turned accomplished criminal defense attorney, to explore the uncommon path of blending military service with a high-impact civilian career.
Doug shares how his experiences in Special Forces—operating in high-stakes, unpredictable environments—directly influence how he defends clients in the courtroom. From unconventional warfare to legal strategy, Doug's story is one of purpose, adaptability, and unwavering service.
This episode unpacks the challenges of transitioning between two demanding professions, the importance of identity beyond the uniform, and the need for veterans to prioritize self-care while continuing to lead and give back. Whether you're a service member, veteran, or someone navigating dual-purpose careers, this conversation offers powerful insight on integrity, mission-focus, and the next chapter of service.
