Special Operations Combatives Program

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No evidence of notability for this private training program which claims to do contract training for the US military. Nothing relevant in Google news, or anything other than their own You tube pages in Google.

I previously speedy deleted a longer version of this as promotional.  DGG ( talk ) 19:56, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Unreferenced article with no evidence of notability, nor has any been found. (I notice that a previous version of this article was deleted as a copyright violation, probably of the page formerly at but now showing no text.) AllyD (talk) 20:03, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

 * delete I found one book reference and a reference in this catalogue from the Special Warfare Center at Fort Bragg. The problem for this article is that both references imply that SOCP is an in-house training segment for army personnel taught by other army personnel; there's no indication that Thompson has anything to do with it. Every other hit seems to trace back to him and his school. SO I would call it promotional and unsourceable as it stands. Mangoe (talk) 13:33, 26 November 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete I found no references that weren't self published or non-notable. Furthermore, the article's POV might be debated. It leans toward being promotional. Vacation nine 13:46, 26 November 2012 (UTC)
