Unfortunatly the army just does what is in vogue. I remember reading an military H2H manual that said "never take the enemy to the ground with a throw or take down because you will just have to hit him when you get down there, you may as well do it standing and save the time." I also remember reading one that stress that you should never kick.
The plain fact of the matter is that soldiers are effective because of who they are. There are in good shape, really aggressive, sometimes mean and operate in a kind of controlled violence at all times. They also tend to drink alot, which means lots of fights. They are also used to fighting through pain to accomplish an objective.
I like the control aspect of ground fight in as well as the chokes, for CQB but if they think that I would attempt Juji gatame on a battle field, somebody has changed the rules because the generals are smokin some serious ganga.
