Soldiers Learn Jiu-Jitsu for Hand to Hand Combat
Charles Dunkley reports February 28 that American soldiers facing Japanese foes in close combat should embrace brutal, practical jiu jitsu and wrestling. Karl Pojello, a 208 pound Lithuanian wrestler, argues he could dominate any jiu jitsu instructor using wrestling holds. Tamura Masato, 143 pounds, demonstrates a quick throat hold knockout. The bout, watched by Navy, Marine fliers and Avery Brundage, aimed to assess whether service members need more wrestling or jiu jitsu for battlefield hand to hand fighting.
