Frank Dux The Secret Man By John Stevens International News Service March 7, 2008 http://www.myspace.com/hanshifrankdux Senate Intelligence Oversight/Congressional Hearing witness - Iran-Contra paymaster, Lt. Commander, Alexander Martin, USN, under penalty of perjury, identified Mr. Frank W. Dux as a covert operative who is responsible for having briefed him as one of the architects of Operation Cordoba Harbor. Lt. Cmdr. Alexander Martin stated: “During my intelligence career, I have met with and been introduced to many covert operatives, whose existence has often been officially denied by the government agencies that these parties have been associated with. One of these covert operatives was one Frank Dux” Major General Anatoly Korneinko, USSR, acting as an official spokesperson of Ukrainian/Former Soviet Military Authority declared, under penalty of perjury, Frank Dux is one of the world’s finest operatives, dubbed “O’hutnick” trans. “The Hunter.” Major General Anatoly Korneinko in the forward of Dux book The Secret Man, HarperCollins, 1996, identified Frank Dux as having been trusted to have led a Top Secret operation at the height of the cold war between the USSR and US, that’s success or failure possibly determined the deployment of weapons of mass destruction. Frank Dux activities are so secret his activities were even concealed from many of the people he served. Thus, it earned him the moniker – The Secret Man. The publication of his best selling auto-biography, based upon his exploits — The Secret Man, HarperCollins, 1996, prompted an official public denial by the CIA, which had not occurred since the CIA denied its prior involvement with Eugene Hasenfus and Watergate Plumbers. Lending credence to speculation Dux covert activities are highly sensitive with serious political overtones. Particularly, in light of new developments, in which 938 related public statements made by the CIA and Bush Administration have been proven to be false. In professional circles, such as SPECWAR operators, like US Navy SEAL community, Mr. Frank W. Dux is often described as America’s real life answer to Mission Impossible: Ethan Hunt, particularly as his expertise and experience led him to becoming the contributing source creator of the coveted US Navy SEAL CFC manual K-431-0097.

In the heart of the world renowned San Fernando Valley that in its heyday, of 1960’s through the 1980s, martial art aficionados refer to as the “Valley of Champions.” With all the worlds leading martial art competitors and instructors being based there along with emerging martial art trade magazines. This had a profound effect on Frank Dux who attributes his ability to have access to such a wide variety of styles and leading experts, had led him to becoming the mixed martial art archetype, even founding his own style of martial art Dux Ryu Ninjitsu and FASST an acronym for (Focus-Action-Skill-Strategy-Tactics). Frank Dux humble beginnings start with his studying under legendary former World Jujitsu Champion, Jack Seki (taught by Jiguro Kano, the founder of Judo), as well as Senzo Tanaka, (35th generation descendant of Koga Yamabushi lineage of Ninjitsu) as well as other notable greats that include, Kajukenpo Soke/Grandmaster, Bill Ryusaki (Bruce Lee’s sidekick and instructor to numerous PKA Champions) [www.duxryu.8m.com]. Grandmaster Ryusaki, in July 2002 documentary video on Kumite International Challenge, identifies Frank Dux thirst for knowledge was so great that being too poor to formally enroll in his classes Dux could be seen outside Ryusaki’s school practicing, with the side-walk as his matt and dojo.

With 56 consecutive knockouts to his credit, the fastest knockout being 3.2 seconds, the fastest recorded punch with knockout .12 sec. and fastest recorded kick with knock out, 72mph, Frank Dux accomplishments made him so renowned and respected in the underground fight world that it finally leaked out and came to the attention of Black Belt Magazine, editor, John Stewart, having published three successive articles on Dux (Sept, Oct & Nov. 1980 issues) which before Dux emergence had been unprecedented. In May 21, 1980 Black Belt magazine warranted prior to the beginning and rise of the Ninja craze of the 1980’s: “…the fact is that there are only two genuine non-oriental ninja known to the world, today and one of them lives in Japan. The other is Frank Dux…Dux is a professional consultant in the field of martial arts, a full contact kumite champion and instructor some impressive students…While this magazine ordinarily does not act as a verification of skills or credentials in this case we happen to know the above statements are true” – John Stewart, Editor Black Belt magazine. To date, Frank Dux has established 16 WORLD RECORDS; many of which have been standing for little over a quarter of a century, thereby, culminating in Frank Dux being inducted into five martial arts Halls of Fame, as a “Living Legend” (e.g. Action Martial Arts Magazine, 2001, World Family Head of Sokeship Council, 1998, etc.); The Father of American Karate, Grandmaster, Ed Parker concurred what Action Martial Art magazine proclaimed: “What Babe Ruth is to Baseball, Frank Dux is to martial arts” Screenwriter Sheldon Lettich brought Frank Dux to the attention of Hollywood film producer, Mark DiSalle, responsible for the 1998 motion picture based upon Frank Dux early life achievements, entitled Bloodsport.

The film is globally popular and is heralded a cult classic, having withstood the test of time still in syndication, 20 years after its theatrical release, in 1988. Hollywood insiders attribute Bloodsport success to not only Frank Dux inspiring story but also his implementing a never seen before realistic fight choreography and camera technique Hollywood film makers adopt and use, still today, he developed with Cinematographer/DP David Worth.
