I wanted to reach out and thank you for the opportunity to attend the P1T class with Donovan for free through your continued support of the Blue Lion Project. I have been a Correctional Deputy for 17 years with the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department. I am currently a part time firearms instructor for my department and my overall goal when attending these classes is to take in as much information as possible to pass on to my peers…at least those who are willing and excited to learn and improve. Donovan is a great shooter, and an even better instructor. This was my first P1T class, and I’ve been given so much to work on and encourage others to do the same. I have been shooting USPSA matches at Route 66 periodically, but recently I have gotten the itch to take a deeper dive into that area of practical shooting. Thank you for your investment in law enforcement, not just in California, but all over this great country! I am very grateful for the opportunity and appreciative of your continued support.

My name is Matt Besoyan, I’m a Police Officer with the Fresno Police Department. First off I just wanted to say I love the products you guys are putting out. Second, and more importantly, I’m writing today to say a huge thank you for the opportunity to attend the PBL class with Donovan two weeks ago. That was hands down one of the best classes I have been to. I also currently work as an Instructor at our regional training center here in Fresno and plan to utilize a lot of the concepts that he presented, with my students on the range. With that being said we have an outstanding facility here in Fresno. If you guys are ever looking to do anything here in the central valley please don't hesitate to ask, our door is always open for you.

I work for Louisiana Probation and Parole and I am a member of the Tactical Team. On 12/05/2023, I had the opportunity to complete a training with Wishes 4 Warriors. Max Michel was our instructor and we completed our training in Hammond. I want to thank you for your support of law enforcement and providing training to keep us safer. The training provided by Howitzer, Wishes 4 Warrior, and Max was excellent and I think I learned more that day than any range day I have participated in.

I wanted to thank you for you sponsorship of Project Blue Lion. As I'm sure you are aware, cops (especially those in the South) don't make much money. Getting a free class is a godsend for most of us, and we really appreciate and value those who look out for us.Donovan is a hell of an instructor. His ability to relay the whole process, especially the why, in such an understandable format makes learning from him easy. I learned a lot in his class, and he made it very fun. His demeanor is perfect for us in law enforcement, as our sense of humor is a bit different. Please continue to support him as an instructor. I will be recommending him to all my friends who are looking for a quality pistol instructor.Thanks again from all of us in the Low country of South Carolina for your support of law enforcement.

I recently attended the above training with Max Michel. I would like to personally thank you for making this training possible. Training such as this is vital to the continued progress and growth of any law enforcement agency. Max and I have been in talks for some time about setting up this training. My goals for the training were to improve my shooting skills, improve my teaching abilities as an instructor, have world class training for the members of our Department’s Tactical unit, and to get the same training and experience for some of our academy instructors. I will absolutely say that Max met those goals. He challenged all of us, provided exceptional teaching, and was a wonderful instructor to be around.

Good evening. I wanted to take a few moments and express my gratitude for the PBL class with Donovan. Let me begin by saying I appreciate your support of the law enforcement community and the need for better firearms training. Donovan is a true professional on all levels and obviously an amazing instructor. Not only did he explain everything with ease and detail but lead by example by demonstrating everything. He fosters a great training/learning environment that breeds competition and comradery. This is arguably one of the best classes I’ve been to in my career. In short ….y’all keep doing what you’re doing it’s a winning recipe!

Thank you again and I hope to host you both again back here in South Carolina.

I wanted to personally thank you for your sponsorship and involvement in the Point 1 Tactics 4th Annual LEO Appreciation course taught by Donovan. I was blown away by the course, not to mention the gear your company provided to us. I am humbled by your support and am very grateful for your willingness to take care of us while taking the course.

Thank you isn’t enough, but I cannot express my appreciation in any other way. I will certainly be a customer of Howitzer Clothing going forward.

My name is Alex AND I am currently a full time police officer in Ohio. I just had the honor of using the Project Blue Lion program for a 2 day vehicle tactics course hosted by Rick at Achilles heel tactical. I wanted to take the time to thank you, the training was phenomenal. Rick and his staff are amazing and I am grateful for the opportunity you have given me. Officers around the US you are providing this training for will definitely benefit. Thank you for your support especially this day in age. Thank you for your time.

I just wanted to take a minute and tell you and the Howitzer team how much I appreciate the Project Blue Lion and giving me the opportunity to take part in some fantastic training from Achilles Heel tactical and Dan Brokos this past weekend in NC. I’ve been in law enforcement since 2011 and it’s some of the best training I’ve had. I greatly appreciated the opportunity of being selected and sponsored to allow me to take part in the training. It was top notch & I hope to be able to do more training with them. Thanks for looking out for LEO and all you do.
