Thus I ask about his background, Kit. If he's "been there-done that" that would certainly help.
However, if he was a low-density MOS stirring a pot of grits his entire tour, and/or has been...

Kit, I read AARs, FMs and TMs, MTPs and ARTEP manuals as my first choice for that sort of thing. I'm not discounting the listed reading material at all; I am prioritizing.
His points are valid...
Given a choice between reading about combat, and actually doing battle drills and collective training under battlefield/CQB simulation, I have to go with the latter. Reading is good though;...
Mike, here is the CALL website: http://usacac.army.mil/cac2/call/index.asp Try this email address, and either ask for AARs, or ask for contact info for Matt Larsen, who collects the AARs: ...
Neil, I am guessing there is not much relevancy to "train to increase HRV" and "train to lower it." HRV is a measurable side-effect, not the goal to shoot for. The training path is already...
You bet I will sir. I would be honored to meet you face-to-face and buy you a beer or three! Unfortunately I don't have any TDY scheduled for your 'hood this year; Ft. Stewart will be the closest,...
Thank you for the clarification sir. I understand you perfectly now.
I'm doing alright; still active duty, still a crusty old E7. I turned the 20-year corner last year; I haven't been the...
Sounds like it all worked out then. Good deal.
I wouldn't characterize any of the other replies in this thread as "peanut gallery" shenanigans. Internet forums are an imperfect medium for...
I agree Major; dick-measuring contests are a waste of time.
I got the impression that his "cohort" is a friend of his, and hell, for all we know he felt obligated to go with his friend to try to...
Kevin, I am just posting my opinion as you have. Chill.

Much ado about nothing. There is all of this hand-wringing going on here about "hurt," and "hurting the guy."
There is a difference between actual damage and injury versus causing some discomfort...
Henry, I don't have a dog in this fight. I do not know you, and besides, nobody here would care what my opinion of you is anyway (assuming I have one, which I don't). I think you and Felix have...
Henry has removed the incorrect assertion from his website that he has black belt rank in BJJ.

Regarding the terminology thing, there is merit to both arguments. I have been fortunate to have Japaneses students and one Rokudan in jodo train and teach at my dojo, so use of Japanese was...
I have corresponded with Mark for years; he opened my mind and my eyes to a few things, and he also gave me MUCH encouragement over the years. I regret never having the opportunity to meet him in...
George, if I had my druthers I would be carrying a Springfield Arms XD-9. I bought one not too long ago, and am quite fond of it. It kicks butt over the M9.

I agree with Brett. I am not a scientist, but the examples stated in the article just don't wash. You catch a baseball based upon a prediction of where the ball will be, by analyzing its path and...
Brian, MACP comes into play when you either are not allowed to use your weapon (humanitarian missions, tactical law enforcement missions) or if you lose your weapon during close combat. Most of the...
Thanks Tom; that sounds wise, and thank you for the additional information.

Work it not only with IBA but also with a weapon; weapon retention skills are important. You don't want to take the bad guy down only to have him shoot you with your own weapon.

MACP is listed in ATRRS at a number of installations. Your Training NCO can pull an A1 screen and input you for one of the courses; I am pretty sure you should not have any problems with course...
To save my poor fingers, please see the ongoing thread with the exact same opening advertisement (above) on Budoseek. Some questions need to be answered. ...
Having been a former member (a long time ago) of Porter's organization, I just want to say I think the OP's article about Phil granting a jujitsu 9th dan is ridiculous, based upon DIRECT observation....
William, I am not Matt, but am assuming you are addressing me? My link is still good - I just checked it. If you still cannot get it to work, send an email to me at jeff@wabujitsu.com. I will...
Joe, I love you man. Do you mind if I put a link to your page from my combatives page?
