• Sommario/riassunto: Chuck Joyner's new book, Advanced Concepts in Defensive Tactics: A Survival Guide for Law Enforcement, is an eye-opener - for two reasons. First, his years of experience in use of force allow him to connect the dots between ethics, tactics, and techniques. They are not three things, they are one thing. As Chuck says: "The meaning of life is to protect and serve." He also tackles well-known, but difficult to address challenges regarding defensive tactics competence. It is extremely difficult to maintain physical skills proficiency with an average of only 4 or 5 hours a year of sustainment training. Chuck's book offers a shortcut to direct and effective tactical movement and techniques for the street that get to the very heart of officer survival.
