I'll second this method. The light has much more oomph with the battery end (pun intended), holding it closer to eye level reduces shadows and places it in a good position for retention, defense and offense.

Also, the elbow is bent and tucked in to a position of maximum strength. A straight elbow is the weakest upper limb joint, but a bent elbow the strongest, most powerful striking surface.

LAS...: nice example of dog psychology. If it runs away, it is food. It is safe to run in a pack, leaving the alpha male to attack first. If he goes down (especially that fast), it may not be such a good idea to continue the fight. The dogs could not realize the trainee had just broken his weapon...
