 Interesting as historic material... June 28, 1999
2 out of 7 found this review helpful
Very interesting as example how the manuals were issued during WWII. The techniques exposed there has a lot Ju Jutsu influence (just it was the martial art's fashion of the period), but only some of them are really effective. By the way, useful to compare with more recent training manual and appreciate the evolution of the hand to hand combat training.
Excellant Research Material April 24, 1999

I have used this book to conduct research into unarmed combat and the techniques that were employed during WWII. As with some systems of unarmed combat in the worlds armies today, some of these techniques still exist as they were designed to be simple but effective..............
 Had merit but overpriced February 10, 1999

The techniques offered in this book have merit, but for a more informative book on self defense I would reccomend the books by Bruce Tegner. If "Get Tough" cost $8 instead of $15 it would have been worth the money.
 A real hoot! August 24, 1998

Interested in learning how to kill a man by employing the "Bronco Kick?" Curious as to how you can break a hold by "siezing your opponent's testicles?" Want to know how, "with your bare hands you can beat the man that wants to kill you?" Ever wondered what you would do if you found yourself sharing a railcar with a bloodthirsty SS Officer--armed with only a matchbox? Then this is the book for you.
A practical and eficcient training guide August 1, 1998
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
There aren't competition techniques in this book, but only war techniques. This book teaches how to survive, not how to conquest medals. Reading "Get Tough" and practicing the lessons, you will be able to survive in extreme situations. The author teaches unarmed combat, stick, knife and smatchet tecniques, how to secure prisioners and pistol disarming.
