#24 Brian O'Connell: Cold War nuclear B-52 missions, overthrow of Noriega, and death from above


Listen Later

Brian O’Connell is a retired United States Air Force Lieutenant Colonel who served his country for more than two decades. From flying nuclear missions on a B-52 Stratofortress during the Cold War, to the overthrowing of Manuel Noriega in Panama, to supporting Army infantry units on the ground as a JTAC—he’s seen a little bit of everything during his decorated career. But that’s not all— this man has lived an incredibly full life, and you’ll have to listen to the episode to hear how it’s all played out.
