Royal Marines Unarmed Combat Training...



Interesting.

Doing it hollywood is one thing but can they do it fully kitted out?  That's one of the strengths of the MCMAP that I seriously wonder about in the other styles.

Yeah.  Fresh, rested and doing work is one thing, but can you do the Marine thing when you're dirt dick tired, hungry, haven't slept in a day or two and have an extra 45 pounds just on your vest, head and feet?

If you can't do it in gear under the conditions I described then its not a military martial art...its a sport.  Not slamming the Royal Marines so don't take it wrong.  Just describing what I've seen in some of the military martial arts that I've seen.
