This book encompasses those techniques and moves as well as those from the Nineties, still being taught today. There are two manuals in this volume, Unarmed Defense for the American Soldier(1942) and Combatives (1992).

These are time-tested and proven in actual combat throughout the world, in numerous conflicts.
