]]> Comment on Bayonet practice by Art Houghtby http://blog.newsok.com/newsroom/2009/09/24/bayonet-practice/comment-page-1/#comment-18667 Art Houghtby Tue, 29 Sep 2009 16:44:58 +0000 http://blog.newsok.com/newsroom/?p=1632#comment-18667 Combat training of all types is very important to all of the services. There was a time where military thinkers felt that Bayonet’s were no longer necessary and a thing of the past. I disagree. Bayonet’s as well as unarmed self defense techniques (Army Combatives & Marine Corps Martial Arts Program (MCMAP)) give US Soldiers and Marines lethal and non-lethal skills that can be employed throughout the various spectrums of military operations. Some feel a need for more focus on weapons training versus hand to hand combat. Weapons are important but weapons by themselves do not the enemy. The Marine, Soldier, Sailor or Airman behind that weapon is what kills. Regardless of the weapon military training instills the necessary will to kill the enemies of the United States. The paradox is that at the same time we cannot lose our compassion and humanity by glorifying killing or instilling a trill of killing.

Still, it was a good read. Keep it up! It’s sad to know that there are parents who resort to having their children’s teeth pulled and not look into other options. Still, it was a good read.

The complex thought process that the instructor employed to determine appropiate action is not uncommon. Many of the officers attending the Command and General Staff College will be confronted with similar dilemmas, within months or possibly even weeks of graduation. This is a prime example of how the college curriculum is focused to prepare these officers for higher levels of command.
