According to multiple news sources: "The other pirate was killed by an SOF member who used a knife in close combat..." Up close and personal. Good to know our forces have skill with a blade. Seems to be a lost art these days. I wonder if he used a standard M9 bayonet or if this particular branch of special forces uses something fancier. |

When I went through boot, they had us train with them. There was a course we had to run and stab dummies. After that, I remember a box of them in the arms room. |
