Admiral Eric Olson retired from the U.S. Navy in 2011 after over 38 years of military service. He served in special operations units throughout his career, was engaged in several contingency operations, and commanded at every level.
Olson’s military career culminated as the head of the U.S. Special Operations Command, responsible for the mission readiness and deployment of all Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps special operations forces.
Olson is now a Tampa-based independent consultant who supports a wide range of private, public, and charitable organizations.
