Copies of the U.S. Army’s official hand-to-hand combat manual from World War II, Vietnam and today are commonly available. Now Paladin fills the gap by reprinting the lesser-known version of this classic field manual from the Korean War era.
The June 1954 edition of FM 21-150 contains hard-core instruction in military close-quarters fighting, all illustrated with unique, clear photographs. See how the U.S. Army’s training methods evolved from the previous printing of FM 21-150 – dated June 1942, at the beginning of America’s involvement in World War II – to this edition, released a year after cessation of hostilities in Korea. Contents include the nastiest blows, strikes and stomps to the vulnerable areas of an enemy’s body; aggressive knife attack techniques; the brutal business of silencing sentries; disarming methods for rifles, pistols, knives and bayonets; and practical holds and throws designed to neutralize an enemy soldier quickly and with ruthless efficiency.
For anyone interested in tracing the development of U.S. Army hand-to-hand combat doctrine, this reprint of FM 21-150 is indispensable. 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, softcover, photos, 192 pp.
