    Spc. Jordan Thomas, with 1st Cavalry Division’s command group protocol office, receives an uppercut by Modern Army Combatives instructor Staff Sgt. Jeffrey Yurk, Alpha Company, 2nd Battalion, 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 82nd Airborne Division, during the clinch drill of an Army Combatives class at Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan, July 31, 2014. As part of a required drill to graduate the class, students had to endure four rounds of being punched by a gloved opponent while trying to clinch their assailant by wrapping their arms around their upper body so no more punches could be thrown.
