Synopsis
In 1942 the Wehrmacht published a training manual with the goal of countering the "silent killing" tactics used by the British commando units. The manual was - much in line with typical National Socialist terminology - titled "Abwehr Englischer Gangster-methoden" or "Defense Against English Gangster methods".
This book was compiled due the Wehrmacht intelligence operatives uncovering of a British hand-to-hand course for the SOE, Commandos, et al, on methods of quick and silent killing (undoubtedly developed by W. E. Fairbairn and E. A. Sykes). They correctly assessed that their troops in general and particularly the Geheime Staatspolizei (Gestapo), Sicherheitsdienst (SD), their security guards, and sentries would be in grave danger when confronted by men trained in these methods. This manual/program was the Wehrmacht's response.

Condition: New. A N&MP Publication 2023 110 illustrated pages German/English Text In 1942 the Wehrmacht published a training manual with the goalÂof countering the "silent killing" tactics used by the British commando units.ÂThe manual was - much in line with typical National Socialist terminology -titled "Abwehr Englischer Gangster-methoden" or "Defence AgainstÂEnglish Gangster methods".ÂThis book was compiled due the Wehrmacht intelligence operativesÂuncovering of a British hand-to-hand course for the SOE, Commandos,Âet al, on methods of quick and silent killing (undoubtedly developedÂby W. E. Fairbairn and E. A. Sykes). They correctly assessed that theirÂtroops in general and particularly the Geheime Staatspolizei (Gestapo),ÂSicherheitsdienst (SD), their security guards, and sentries would beÂin grave danger when confronted by men trained in these methods.ÂThis manual/program was the Wehrmacht's response.ÂThe manual statesâThese gangster methods are unnatural to the German soldier. Yet, we must adapt to them. Once attacked, one must defend oneself by the same means used by oneâs attacker.Once you have defended yourself against an attacker, there is only one goal: to incapacitate them as quickly as possible via counterattack. Students should note that many of these grapple-holds, etc., are difficult â" if not impossible â"to carry out when faced with a practised opponent. And it would be exceedingly unwise to assume that the opponent is unpractised.âSo, let us practiseThis book is published strictly for historical purposes.
