During World War II, the U.S. Navy used sports to condition recruits both mentally and physically for combat. The Naval Aviation Physical Training (V-5) Program compiled specific manuals outlining instruction in each sport. Boxing is the essence of the fighting man, and from time immemorial it has been used to train, harden, and discipline military personnel. It is only natural, then, that boxing was central to the V-5 training program.
Boxing, originally published in 1943, was compiled by boxing champions and coaches to teach World War II cadets how to take a punch and fight back viciously, calmly, and with deadly intent. The manual was so successful that the United States Naval Institute reissued it several times, and copies of the original manual are still in high demand.
