Training Mission One

For more than 4 decades I’ve worked to create a program that constituted the essence of combat. Style-free. Arts-free. Sports-free. The essence of hand, stick, knife and gun fighting. I envisioned a person skilled in unarmed combatives, yet armed with a rifle, or a pistol, or a stick or a knife, or all of them. Someone that could fight standing, seated, kneeling and on the ground, utilizing their hands, or whatever weapon they had. And they could do it in a way that was morally and legally necessary to win and survive the crime or war situation. These Training Mission books document my mission. - Hock

Hock’s Training Mission One is an unarmed and multi-weapon collection of his Force Necessary, Level 1 hand, stick, knife and gun course materials. The Stop 6 training program provides the skeleton for the organization of this material.

Stop 1 contains all the vital, pre-fight, pre-crime moves, interview and ambush, counter-stalking information and intelligence, plus the stress drills and scenarios of weapon, quick draws. The unarmed level covers all the Level 1 strikes, kicks and grappling. A practitioner may choose to study one or all of those 4 courses.

The book is divided into two parts.

. Part 1 covers the pre-crime, pre-fight criteria of Stop 1 of the Stop 6.

. Part 2 covers the physical and mental requirements, skills, drills and scenarios specific for hand, stick, knife and gun level 1.
