I can vouch for attitude and situational awareness. Every other week my co-workers and I meet for dinner. Being men, we walk the most direct route to our destination, which includes a short walk through a narrow walkway between buildings. I noticed that one old guy with experience in bad situations always goes to his front pocket when entering the alley. I have found myself doing the same unconscious move. We're checking to make sure we have a knife at hand(although at this stage in my life, having used a pocket knife since I was about 6, leaving home without a pocket knife would be like not wearing underwear. Ever had a gym teacher want to "borrow your knife"?). The other three guys, well, the first time they would know something was wrong would be when the guy in front or behind them gets knocked in the head.
