Allan Corstorphin Smith was one of the many unsung Combatives pioneers who passed on what he knew. He stripped down the Jiu-Jitsu he had learned at the Kodokan and taught something in World War One which was very similar to what the other Combatives pioneers taught later on. In World War Two he called his system Battle Fighting. He gave his students the tools to feel safer and more secure about themselves in their lives whomever they were, whether they were a Student, a Boy Scout, a Policeman, or a Soldier.
