Who wins a physical altercation and who prevails in an armed confrontation?

This specialist book deals with the phenomenon of close combat, an everyday problem for all police officers, investigators and special forces deployed on the street. The author combines brutal real-world experience on the street with his desire to pass it on as practical self-protection guidance to younger colleagues. Patrol officers, undercover investigators, detectives, bodyguards and arrest teams are not only a factor of order, but often also victims and injured parties. He has worked his way through this ruthless world from the bottom to the top as an operational officer. This motivation gave rise to this book. In future, younger colleagues should benefit from his experience and, in addition to practical examples, also gain the right mindset.
In some urban districts in Germany there is at times open confrontation on the streets. The author addresses these issues and aims to give his colleagues and interested professional readers a detailed explanation of what they may face and how they can protect themselves. Key topics of the book include a description of the social environment, the use of firearms to avert danger to life and limb, knife attacks as a lethal threat, and confrontation with violent offenders while off duty.
