About ED MARTIN
Except for being a TWA pilot and B26 pilot who flew a nuclear mission during the Cuban Blockade in Oct 1962. He was also one of the highest ranked Bujinkan instructors. Ed produced a video tape entitled ‘Self Defense for Everyone’. This earned an award of merit from Masaaki Hatsumi and a suggestion by Ninjutsu’s Grandmaster to make a sequel.
Sadly he passed away in July 2017.
He touched so many people, all over the world. For many of you, he was like a father for you too. With his unrelenting will, he accomplished so much. We thank you all for allowing him into your lives and into your hearts. For many others, he was your brother, your Uncle Ed, your friend and teacher. Our Papa San
