I commend the efforts of Michael Young, who, for twenty-three years, has served as a sworn member of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. Because of Michael’s experience and nationally acclaimed expertise in martial arts, he has been a primary defensive tactics instructor on our department for over two decades. During this time, he has helped to lay the foundation for the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Defensive Tactics Training Program, which is among the finest in the country. Michael’s law enforcement experience and martial arts skills give him complete credibility in teaching the mechanics of street survival. Because I share Michael Young’s passion for training and officer safety, I am pleased to recommend his book to all who have chosen this honorable and challenging profession.
