I answered my phone one day to hear Greg Thompson's voice - he wanted us to design the new Hand to Hand Combat shirt, which we took as a great honor. Ever the perfectionist, Greg sent us a hand sketch of what he wanted it to generally look like, so we can't take credit for all of it, but we hope we did him proud.
For those of you that don't know Greg, he is a level IV instructor in the modern army combatives program at Fort Bragg and holds about 134 black belts. He is pretty much a ninja - maybe even actually one (I have to recheck his list of belts) - while simultaneously being one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. He is the owner of
TEAM ROC, where Tim Kennedy currently trains.
His training is top notch and has saved the lives of many soldiers. If you like this shirt, you may also want to check out his book:
