Produced by St. Louis Ordnance Plant Protection Department, “Methods of Self Defense” is a short, color instructional film likely from sometime during WWII, when security and espionage concerns at defense plants was deemed to be of supreme importance. The film intends to demonstrate self defense methods in various scenarios that would call for them such as police holds and “come alongs,” trips and throws, disarming, use of the riot stick, searching of prisoners, and breaks from attacks. Two men, Chief of Plant Protection F. Lincoln Luke, a graduate of the FBI’s National Police Academy, and Lt. A.H. Devan, demonstrate the self defense methods throughout the course of the 10-minute film. The demonstrations take place in an empty room and are repeated and in slow-motion so that the viewer may capture every detail of the strategy.

Ordnance plants sprung up across the United States during World War II and were government-owned, contractor-operated warehouses for the manufacture, testing, and storage of parts and chemical agents needing in bombs and explosives. All the plants depended heavily on civilian workers for their main work force. Despite the fact that World War II ended in 1942, ordnance plants remained open and functional until the mid-1950s.
