Why We Founded Man O' War Defense Group

Man O’ War Defense Group was born out of a simple observation — the security industry needed better people.

After wrapping up our time in law enforcement and overseas security operations, a few of us returned home and quickly saw the gap: too many security professionals, even those with solid backgrounds, lacked motivation, discipline, or the training to truly perform. We knew it didn’t have to be this way.

So, we built something better.

Man O’ War started with a small team of dedicated, like-minded professionals who believed in setting a higher standard. We recruited those who shared our mindset — individuals with integrity, real-world experience, and the hunger to improve.

That effort paid off. Our team delivered consistent results, earned the trust of our clients, and proved that professionalism and performance are still alive in this industry.

At the core of everything we do is our motto: “Die Trying.”

To us, it means striving for perfection no matter the cost — showing up with excellence, pushing past limitations, and never settling for “good enough.” Whether it’s training or mission execution, we operate with full commitment and zero compromise.

Today, Man O’ War Defense Group proudly provides elite tactical training and security solutions across the United States and abroad. We're here to protect, to serve, and to raise the standard — one mission at a time.
