What Soldiers & Law Enforcement are Saying About H2H® Combatives Systems

"H2H® combative systems is the Close Combat overhaul Special Forces has been waiting for! As an instructor for Close Combat at SFARTAETC I had to fill a void that was painfully obvious. Conducting Close Combat with full kit is an expected part of CQB but not properly trained for. Greg formalized a program that fit the CQB environment, but yet transitioned into other Special Forces missions without skipping a beat . . . he has seamlessly integrated a transition from Modern Army Combatives to the more advanced H2H®. This is what the Special Forces soldier needs to improve and maintain high combat efficiency! Keep up the good work!"

"It was an absolute privilege to train with Greg Thompson and Brian of H2H. Greg and his staff not only possess extrordinary skills in the area of combatives, their ability to serve the customer is unparralled. I have been an Officer Response Tactics instructor for over 12 years, and this training was an eye opening experience for all who attended. Greg and his staff are able to meet students at the level they are at and provide enhanced skills to further a student's individual abilities. Greg and his staff provided us technical assistance to improve our program. I look forward to working with H2H in the future."

"100% gave positive reviews of the training. You accomplished some good things in 5 days and helped give us a way ahead for expanding and sustaining this capability. It is obvious to all your approach fits what we want to accomplish for task specific combatives. Thank Brandon for us when he gets home. We'll be in touch about getting men to your location for train-the-trainer development. Thanks again."

"As a nineteen year veteran of law enforcement, defensive tactics instructor, military veteran and 2nd Dan Black belt in Tae Kwon Do . . . Being a Certified North Carolina Subject Control and Arrest Techniques Instructor and former Defensive Tactics Coordinator of North Carolina’s largest law enforcement agency, I know the importance of accomplishing maximum training, within limited training hours. Greg has dissected the techniques taught by many agencies and adapted his techniques for all participants with various levels of conditioning . . . In this book you will find that Greg has accomplished a difficult feat by assimilating the best techniques for the largest number situations an officer or soldier will encounter."

Alvin L. Coley
North Carolina Subject Control and Arrest Techniques Instructor



"Greg has developed his programs based on the feedback of soldiers who have “been there and done that” in the Close Quarters setting of Iraq and Afghanistan during the War on Terror . . . Greg Thompson is a true asset to the military or any other agency that he is acquainted with and I am honored to call him my friend."

"Hey, Greg, just wanted to drop you a line and let you know how much I enjoyed training with you and Brian this past week at FLETC.... After the training at our meeting on Wed. morning..... everyone had such good things to say about you and Brian both and what you bring to the table for us and the fact that we would like to continue to use you as our go to person. We were over whelmed with your abilities and talent and professionalism.

As a female, with a non fighter back ground, this is new territory for me. I think I told you how intimidating that you guys were when you came in and within a few minutes you had put me at ease and I felt like that I could learn anything from you. Being in this field is sometimes not easy, but you were able to instill confidence in some of the things that we learned and my abilities to do them. You were able to answer my why questions or what can I do that will work for us questions. I felt like that you didn't think our concerns were stupid or not legitimate in any way which makes me as a student want to learn more . Believe it or not even in this day and time there are many people who do not believe that women need to be doing what we do, even though our staff is more than half women... My only regrets are that you do not live close enough that I could attend regular training. Your persona is such a plus and I can tell that you really love what you do and have a true passion for it...

You and Brian are not your typical DT instructors with a huge ego's or something to prove.... you have already done that based on your accomplishments. I would recommend you to anyone who asked and any agency that may need your guidance or assistance. IT is really hard to put into words all the things that we saw in your training and how valuable it was to us and individuals and our job performance. You won us all over at U.S. Probation. Thanks again for your help and hopefully we will be seeing you again. If you ever need anything from Alabama, just give me a call. "
