Close Quarter Battle

Close Quarter Battle can be defined loosely as "fighting at ranges close enough to render the traditional military weapons ineffective". In general, this means anything from a few yards to a few inches. It is normally thought of as ‘hand to hand’ fighting but that is not correct because it also encompasses knives, sticks, bayonets and the variety of specialised personal weapons such as chemical sprays, stun guns, etc. In some circumstances CQB also can mean the use of firearms during hostage rescue or dynamic entry team scenarios, but as a rule this form of CQB is taught separately.

Methods of close-in fighting have been around for as long as armed conflict. The Greeks, Romans, Chinese and Japanese all used them throughout their histories, and at least in myth and stage play they have played a part in shaping today’s nations. After all, stories of individual valour go a long way toward defining our concept of the modern warrior.
