It's good training and all, but the Army does not expect soldiers to win wars with hand to hand. The training is more intended to teach aggression and courage under pressure, which are also good things. It can be useful in a pinch, but usually you would blow up or shoot the enemy.
According to my family members & friends, the Army always had show stricking, pressure point, & some grappling. It just that when Matt Larsen (along with others) brought GJJ into the mix, it also brought the dose of tried and true weaponless combat.
Yes we do. The first level is based around closing the distance, acheiving the clinch to avoid getting hit, taking the person to the ground, acheiving the dominate position then finishing the fight. level 2 starts striking then 3 is more with weapons and knives and 4 is more of an instructors course.
i think they teach krav maga or something close to krav maga for striking in the military. i heard of israeli forces teaching combat to the navy seals
"Supporting the Army" Are you retarded, they taught the American Solider a better way of defending where you live. Let me guess you are one of those people who debates that War is unnecessary, yet, at the same time you are having that conversation while you are eating at any restaurant you want, enjoying the ability to go anywhere and do anything, practicing any religion, all while still being one of the biggest douche bags out there.
YES it is. If OUR military didn't do that, THEIR Military would do it to us. Have you ever been to a country that had some seriously harsh ways of living? Maybe you have. Have you ever had to live like that? Im going to say I bet you havent. Would you like to live like that? Im thinking you dont.
really if we didn't go screw around in Iraq they'd invade us huh bro? how stupid are you. pretty damn stupid i gotta admit, can't quantify it exactly. countries with your so called harsh ways of living are poor and 3rd world like bro, you think they can actually invade us and do shit? your delusional bro, completely delusional. get your shit together, put your thinking cap on, take the dick out'a your mouth, and lets rub what few cells you got left in that block a yours. just try bro.
Wow, I mean your right BRO, I guess the Twin Towers and every terrorist act isn't really true. I mean it was all just fake, oh wait I'm sorry BRO per you it was only done by the rich, you are truly fucking stupid. Now you probably are going to compare a terrorist attack to invading but here is the Websters definition: an act or instance of invading or entering as an enemy. When a Terrorists enters as an enemy its invading, you schmuck. STFU BRO.
Nah I'm just gonna point out that Iraq wasn't responsible for the attack of 9/11. If you want to lay blame anywhere it would be the US foreign policy of empire making that creates enemies all over the world by sending soldiers overseas to interfere everywhere. The soldiers make our lives LESS safe, not more so.
My point was not about Iraq and/or 9/11 it was the fact that it can be a poor person from a 3rd world who does an invasion style act. I do agree we do step into areas we shouldn't ALL THE TIME but sometimes we step where we need too eithe or it isn't the Soliders Fault, they are told what to do. Usually the orders come from guy who has a bunch of advisors telling him different ways to do thing and ultimately he states what he thinks is best. The Solider is just following orders.
Looks like I've just verbally owned you since you've fallen back into the corner spouting off some irrelevant respect the soldiers they just following orders shit. Don't know how that applies to you making outrageous claims that the war in Iraq protects our freedoms.
Seriously are you still talking? Ok so first off this wasn't a debate about the War in Iraq, is was about War itself. You stated "sending soliders overseas to interfere everywhere" now you are saying we are just talking about Iraq. Are you seriously such a stupid shit that you don't remember your own words. Secondly, you stated "The soldiers make our lives LESS safe, not more so" How the fuck does that make sense, Have you ever read a history book? Fucking Dummy.
you're too stupid to understand that having soldiers overseas in every country getting involved in their affairs and fucking with their governments is what causes hatred of America throughout the world and terrorism like 9/11? do you think it's all just jealous hate of our great economy? this is the price of imperialism. carried out by the soldiers.
What is the difference if we are talking directly about Iraq, or other countries we've invaded to put in a puppet dictator?
@Nerstow No, you're just too stupid to realize that our leaders are the ones who tell soldiers to go die at our behest. Do you honestly believe that without a volunteer military force, our leadership wouldn't go doing the same thing? Really? So then how do you explain the droves of "security contractors" under the employment of the US government being used in Iraq and Afghanistan, where they are obligated to report to nobody but their money-hungry bosses? You fuckin' peabrain.
@CreedOfHeresy if we stopped funding overseas wars then our government wouldn't be paying "security contractors" to screw around in iraq and afghanistan. you seriously so bereft of thought you can't make that connection without it spelled out to you? you think the security contractors are making money for someone? no, they are ran off taxation just like the official military.
@Nerstow I'll keep this short so your poor meth-addled brain can process it. You can have people serving the people or at least a government for the people, OR, you can have an unaccountable mercenary force that does not need any oversight. No reporting to anyone on any official level. Just numbers as a defense budget, for people who are just in it for the money.
@CreedOfHeresy Do you think an unaccountable mercenary force is going to go over to Iraq and fight for free? No, they do it for money right? How do you think these companies make money? Our Government pays them. You are so addicted to war you can't fathom having a government that doesn't provide public or private sector soldiers to other countries.
@CreedOfHeresy Who is going to exploit our national resources if we had a small military that stays on American soil? Is Mexico going to invade us and take our oil? I don't expect to hear an answer from you because all you have are stupid theoretical straw man statements.
Your ignorant war sucks when it is unjustified. But if this country ever becomes under attack the ones protecting our freedom will be the army. You should be ashamed for such ignorant comments.
