The Inayan Eskrima/Eskrima Digest website has a links page that includes links to historical documents, for example, Vic Hurley's "Swish of the Kris" (haven't visited the site in a while, though).

Hey you might want to ceheckout silent warriors of world war II...it is about a special force team back before the Navy Seals called The Alamo Scouts. I have a book on them. It is a pretty cool book. They are the only military group in our history that had zero losses. They had 106 missions that were all successful. They never lost a man or had a single injury. They participated in liberating two POW camps and many other missions. The Filipino's are where they got alot of their training from. You can google a search for Alamo Scouts and find some info on them.
