JKDU Instructor David Giomi sent this to me. Very interesting- no wonder we won that war!

I like this quote from one of the (very quick) text screens:

“Most people think that Jiu-jitsu is merely a series of trick holds, but our men are taught that they must knock all the fight out of a man before they try these holds on him. "

Here is a link to a free ebook that one of the instructors in that video wrote back in 1918.  Interesting stuff!

Thanks, Burton, Jeff, and Dave.  

I think that Burton should slick back his hair with Dapper Dan and grow a big, waxed mustache before shooting the photos for his forthcoming JKDU book.   Very Happy

I have an original set of the 7 books by Capt. Smith, so it is really neat to see film of this.

That's okay.  You can always Photoshop the mustaches in later. Very Happy
