Close Engagement Target Acquisition

"ACQUIRE YOUR TARGET AND DESTROY IT"

 â€‹BL​ACK MEDICINE

THE SCIENCE OF DESTROYING THE HUMAN BODY

CQC BONE 1.jpg

IN-DEPTH STUDY OF THE HUMAN ANATOMY, ITS WEAKNESSES, AND MEDICAL ANALYSIS ON THE DAMAGE iNFLICTED ON THE HUMAN BODY.

​

 THE SCIENCE OF DESTROYING THE HUMAN BODY

IN-DEPTH ANALYSIS OF THE BODY'S WEAKNESSES

Developed by former U.S. Army Chief Combatives Instructor Dr. Leonard Holifield. (C.E.T.A) Close-Engagement-Target-Acquisition, was developed specifically for ending a physical assault in the quickest and most effective way possible, by destroying the body's main Life Support Systems, to include the: Central Nervous System, Circulatory System, Respiratory System, Brain, Skeletal System, and Internal Organs of the body.

Medical analysis of damage inflicted will also be examined and explained. The techniques and information presented in this seminar are FOR ACADEMIC STUDY ONLY.

Students are solely responsible for the use or misuse of the information presented in this seminar.

C.E.T.A

"CONTROLLED CHAOS"

CLOSE - ENGAGEMENT - TARGET - ACQUISITION

Translation: Acquire Target and Destroy It!!!

THE ATTACKER WILL ALWAYS OBLIGE YOU BY

GIVING YOU HIS WEAPONS (Arms, Hands, Legs)

WHEN HE DOES - GIVE THEM BACK (MODIFIED)

BREAK THEM!!!

 

Introducing

ARMAGEDDONTM​

"The Total Destruction of the Arms"

Man's primary and most dangerous (Physical) weapon is his Hands. The hands can Grip, Choke, Punch, Crush, Stab, Slash, and Pull a Trigger. Without the Hands and Arms, the ability to fight offensively or defensively is greatly reduced or eliminated all together.

This system, developed by Dr. Leonard Holifield, focuses on destroying ALL parts of the Arms, to include the Hands, Fingers, Wrist, Forearm, Elbow, and Shoulder. The Bones, Joints, Muscles and Tendons of the arms are examined closely, and the ways to destroy and disable them with the blade.
