Quite sure some others around here already are familiar with this (or its equivalent) already.

Bookmarked for future reference. Danke!

I still remember my dad showing me some of the hand-to-hand stuff he learned in the army. The one I recall most vividly was the one he emphasized, probably because it was something anybody, including me, could do fairly easily - the hard open-palm strike straight to the face, preferably the nose.

It was also one of the first strikes I learned when I took up martial arts, and it's still one of my favorites... altho I'll probably always prefer jamming my elbow in there if at all possible.
