FORT CARSON, Colo.—The Army is officially opening a new outdoor training center at Fort Carson to focus on “combatives,” the technique of subduing an enemy in hand-to-hand combat without firearms.

A ribbon-cutting ceremony is planned Wednesday.

The Combatives Training Facility has a 50-by-50-foot roof with lights so soldiers can train in bad weather and in limited light. It also has a 32-foot-by-32-foot training area that has been rubberized to lessen the risk of injury.
