Download or read book Explosive Combat written by Alan Lamb and published by Explosive Combat Wing Chun. This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wing Chun is one of the most mysterious and effective forms of Kung-Fu ever developed. It's unique training exercises and principles give the practitioner the ability to often overcome larger and stronger opponents, as well as "first-strike" speed. Legend has it that a woman who witnessed a hawk fighting a snake originally developed the system. She observed how the snake evaded the hawk and was always able to strike first by following a linear pattern and using a springing type of energy. Alan Lamb, a Hong Kong-trained instructor of Wing Chun with over 30 years of experience, now brings this unique system into the 21st century, adapting it to today's streets. In this volume, the sequel to Explosive Combat Wing Chun Volume 1, Lamb continues the monumental work he began in the previous book by familiarizing the reader with the ancient principles of Wing Chun in a modern context. Wing Chun was based on the principle of simplicity, and this principle is expressed in the three weaponless forms conventionally taught within this system: Sil Lum Tau, Cham Kiu, and Biu Jee. In these photo-packed pages, Lamb reveals the movements of the three major forms from various angles, giving the reader a textbook as well as a set of guidelines for their proper execution. He then reveals the intent of each form, as well as a multitude of applications. Explosive Combat Wing Chun truly shows you how the secrets of one of feudal China's most ingenious fighting systems can be adapted to the 21st century. Book jacket.

Download or read book Back in the Fight written by Joseph Kapacziewski and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2013-05-07 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspiring and thrilling combat memoir of the only Army Ranger serving in direct combat operations with a prosthetic limb. On October 3, 2005, Kapacziewski and his soldiers were coming to the end of their tour in Northern Iraq when their convoy was attacked by enemy fighters. A grenade fell through the gunner's hatch and exploded, shattering Kapacziewski's right leg below the knee, damaging his right hip, and severing a nerve and artery in his right arm. He endured more than forty surgeries, but his right leg still wasn't healing as he had hoped, so in March 2007, Kapacziewski chose to have it amputated with one goal in mind: to return to the line and serve alongside his fellow Rangers. One year after his surgery, Kapacziewski accomplished his goal: he was put back on the line, as a squad leader of his Army Ranger Regiment. On April 19, 2010, during his ninth combat deployment (and fifth after losing his leg), Kapacziewski's patrol ran into an ambush outside a village in eastern Afghanistan. After a fellow Ranger fell to withering enemy fire, shot through the belly, Sergeant Kap and another soldier dragged him seventy-five yards to safety and administered first aid that saved his life while heavy machineguns tried to kill them. His actions earned him an Army Commendation Medal with "V" for Valor. He had previously been awarded a Bronze Star for Valor—and a total of three Purple Hearts for combat wounds. Back in the Fight is an inspiring and thrilling tale readers will never forget.

Download or read book Explosive Conflict written by Randall Collins and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-02-16 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This sequel to Randall Collins' world-influential micro-sociology of violence introduces the question of time-dynamics: what determines how long conflict lasts and how much damage it does. Inequality and hostility are not enough to explain when and where violence breaks out. Time-dynamics are the time-bubbles when people are most nationalistic; the hours after a protest starts when violence is most likely to happen. Ranging from the three months of nationalism and hysteria after 9/11 to the assault on the Capitol in 2021, Randall Collins shows what makes some protests more violent than others and why some revolutions are swift and non-violent tipping-points while others devolve into lengthy civil wars. Winning or losing are emotional processes, continuing in the era of computerized war, while high-tech spawns terrorist tactics of hiding in the civilian population and using cheap features of the Internet as substitutes for military organization. Nevertheless, Explosive Conflict offers some optimistic discoveries on clues to mass rampages and heading off police atrocities, with practical lessons from time-dynamics of violence.

Download or read book Military Training written by Sharon L. Pickup and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In conventional warfare, support forces (SF) such as military police, engineers, and medical personnel normally operate behind the front lines of a battlefield. But in Iraq and Afghanistan -- both in U.S. Central Command's (CENTCOM) area of responsibility -- there is no clear distinction between front lines and rear areas, and SF are sometimes exposed to hostile fire without help from combat arms units. This report on combat skills training for SF assessed the extent to which: (1) Army and Marine Corps SF are completing required combat skills training; (2) the services and CENTCOM have information to validate completion of required training; and (3) the services have used lessons learned to adjust combat skills training for SF.
