One of the strengths that you bring from the outside is that you have real world experience outside of technology. This will prove invaluable when you get on projects as you will have an idea of how software works from a user perspective not just a coding perspective. Good luck with the rest of your journey too :).
Yes I want to second this one. The experience is not just about how the military operate but also the mentality and attitude of the people. Often, too, freelance development is about contacts. It depends if Fikra_Dev wants to make a full, clean break from the military but one approach likely to succeed is to try to steer towards developing systems in the area where the private and military sector meet - private software contracts, web advertising and media, that kind of thing.
