I am a U.S. Marine in Iraq. I am detached from my unit to go serch T.C.N's (third country national) houses.We search them in teams of two one for overwatch holding the weapon and the searcher whith no weapon. I was in the middle of searching a T.C.N when another one came up out of nowhere and grabbed my wrist. im not sure if im spelling this right but i used one of my sam bak sool teq.'s and put him down my battle buddy said it happend so fast he did not know what to do. After that we arrested him. I just want to thank my teacher. He knows who he is I also want to thank HRD for giving me the tools.

most of the tcns work on base with KBR so we do most of the searches on base.

There is indeed a need for defense against wrist grabs. Good thing you have some Som Mak Sul, Adam. Way to go.
