Description
The official illustrated guide from the US Army on the best ways to fight and win when you are reduced to going toe to toe with an enemy: fundamentals, vulnerable points, holds, and escapes, and more.
This manual was created to teach American soldiers hand-to-hand fighting techniques. It describes blows, holds, footwork, armwork, and other manoeuvres that can be used to disable or kill an enemy. It explains how to use all available objects as weapons and stresses aggressive tactics. You can subdue an opponent only through offensive measures.
What will you do if you are attacked by an enemy with a knife? What are your vulnerable points? How will you disarm him? United States soldiers have been involved in those kinds of fights for centuries. This is what they've learned. This is how to fight. This is how to win.
Discover the strategies and techniques within U.S. Army Hand-to-Hand Combat to equip yourself for any confrontation.
