Our Story

​

Archangel Defense Readiness Academy was founded by Richard Hoyle, a U.S. Army Ranger veteran and law enforcement officer with over 22 years of experience in tactical instruction and public safety. Richard has served as a certified firearms instructor for law enforcement since 2004, and has a deep background in military training—starting as an certified light and heavy weapons range instructor in 1995 and as an infantry training instructor in 1999.

 

His lifelong commitment to training, safety, and service led to the creation of the academy.
