"In 1923, Oshchepkov and Spiridinov collaborated with a team of other experts on a grant from the Soviet government to improve the Red Army?s hand-to-hand combat system. Spiridonov had envisioned integrating all of the world?s fighting systems into one comprehensive style that could adapt to any threat. Oshchepkov had observed Kano?s distillation of Tenjin Shin?yo Ryu jujitsu and Kito Ryu jujitsu into judo, and he had developed the insight required to evaluate and integrate combative techniques into a new system."
