A Look at Combat Classics, Military Engagements and the Martial Arts

In recent years, there have been many combat classics of the Second World War, and other wars, manuals exploring classical military engagements of World War II. These manuals generally highlight the martial arts that played a role in these classics of World War Two combat engagements.

If you are interested in the combat classics and military action of the Second World War era, including the role the martial arts and hand to hand combat played, you'll be eager to enjoy these rare texts.

One such manual is "Lightining Ju-Jitsu". It goes without saying that when it comes to the martial arts, combat classics and military engagements, the Imperial Japanese Military is often the center of interest. Many ancient martial arts techniques either originated within the Japanese Empire or were refined and enhanced by Japanese warriors.

"Lightning Ju-Jitsu" describes the ultimate development of Japanese Ju-Jitsu into a highly versatile and easily learned self defense art. This manual incorporates lessons drawn from the history and development of military strategies and fighting techniques -- including the martial arts -- throughout the history of the Japanese Empire. The manual also tracks the expansion of the use of the martial arts beyond the realm of the Japanese Empire into other countries, including nations of the Western World. (A great deal of martial arts advancement occurred during the 1940s and the World War Two period.) Many of the techniques of Lightning Ju-Jitsu are as easily used by shop owners and older women, as the well trained soldiers who first developed them.

Another manual that highlights combat classics, military engagements, military strategies and the martial arts is "Jiu-Jitsu Health Secrets". This manual illustrates how effectively the martial arts that originated in the overall military strategies and fighting schemes of the armies of Japan, China and Asian nations can be adapted to the needs of American civilians.

"Jiu-Jitsu Health Secrets" takes time to discuss the many health benefits available to those of us willing to study this practical self defense system. According to this manual, the regular practice of Jiu-Jitsu can transform the physique of its practitioners. These findings prove that fighting skill and more vibrant health can be found in one time saving practice.

Finally, another manual that details combat classics, military strategies and their relationship to the martial arts is "The USMC Combat Jiu-Jitsu Manual". As the title rightly suggests, the text considers the fighting skills used by the legendary few, proud, and brave. The manual explores in depth the many unarmed fighting skill necessary to survive the battlefield of the Pacific War. In addition, the use of simple weapons, such as knives and sticks, is explored in realistic, ready-for-the-battlefield, detail.

These manuals are combat classics providing a solid foundational background on the martial arts and their application throughout history. Consider spending time on these and related texts detailing the interrelationship between combat classics, military strategy and the martial arts throughout the 20th and into the 21st century.
