From the personal archives of an enthusiast and collector, a rare Dutch military manual on Close Combat from just after WW2 (1947). This is an historical work and the techniques herein are shown to help preserve knowledge of historical combat instruction. They are not shown, or recommended, to serve as a self-defence manual of instruction. Translation from the original Dutch has been done by a non-native speaker, with the best of intentions…please be gentle with any translation errors.
