It would help to find the manual you are looking for if a manual # was known. I clearly remember "Hand to Hand Combat Training" when I went through Basic Training at Ft. Benning, GA, in 1969. There is a field manual FM -21-150 published/dated 1963, 1969, and 1971, Department of the Army. The manual titled "COMBATIVES" covers hand to hand fighting, bayonet and knife fighting. Similar to Basic Training. A drill sergeant stood on a large platform and shouted instructions while we paired off and trained. I do have a copy of it somewhere. It is currently MIA.

Unfortunately, this wasn’t a regular FM, it appears to have been locally produced for just the

Ft Lewis Drill Sergeant School.  There were similar items produced at Ft Leonard Wood and Ft Benning.
