Army specialists Jacob Hutt, center, and Luis Mejias, right, both assigned to U.S. Army Alaska, conduct a Modern Army Combatives Program tactical scenario on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, Feb. 6, 2020, designed to enhance unit combat readiness by building personal courage, confidence, and resiliency as well as situational responsiveness to close-quarters threats in an operational environment. The MACP defines combatives, or hand-to-hand combat, as an engagement between two or more persons in an empty-handed struggle or with hand-held weapons such as knives, sticks or projectile weapons. Proficiency in hand-to-hand combat is one of the fundamental building blocks for training the modern U.S. Army soldier. (U.S. Air Force photo/Justin Connaher)
