To be in the special forces in the R.O.K you have to have a 1st Dan in Tkd
Bruce Lee studied Judo with Lebell, Ju-Jitsu with Wally Jay, and there are indian wrestling exercise as well as a savate and Mauy Thai kick illistrated in the Dao of JKD. So you're right in that sens that there's nothing new under the sun but I think the way most Tma's are taught today illistrates that they are broken. In a recent article by Dan Inasanto he said that the martial arts have evloved so much in that the average person of the sixties would not be nealy as knowlegable as a person of today. I think if both the striking and grappeling aspects are trained in an alive manner then a tma would be functional have fun finding a schoool like that.
