He also claims you guys can try out for the Fort Hood MMA team. This is contrary to what most infantry I know has said. Thu, 03 Aug 2017 13:53:47 -0400 Is there a Fort Hood MMA team?

There are competitions but I cannot vouch for brutality of any sort outside of duty. We did occasionally utilize the pits for combatives refresher during PT.

The BJJ classes were really good. <br />My unit rarely touched combative. My platoon wS investigated for birthday pink bellies so I highly doubt any kind of off duty fighting was going on.
