===Judo===
[[Judo]]'s resurgence after the war was due primarily to two individuals, [[Kyuzo Mifune]] and LeMay. The pre-war death of [[Kanō Jigorō|Jigorō Kanō]] ("the father of judo"), wartime demands on the Japanese, their surrender, postwar occupation, and the martial-arts ban<ref>"With the end of the war in August 1945, the Ministry of Education regained control of Japan's physical education curriculum, and this ended the bayonet and grenade throwing in the Japanese public schools. On October 22, 1945, the Supreme Commander Allied Powers (SCAP) notified the Ministry of Education that "dissemination of militaristic and ultra-nationalistic ideology will be prohibited and all military education and drill will be discontinued." Two months later, on January 4, 1946, SCAP issued Directive 550, which, with its companion Directive 548, required "the removal and exclusion from public life of militaristic and ultra nationalistic persons." One result of these orders was that the Ministry of Education eliminated martial arts from school curricula.": from [http://ejmas.com/jcs/jcsart_svinth_1202.htm Documentation Regarding the Budo Ban in Japan, 1945–1950], ''Journal of Combative Sport'', December 2002</ref> all contributed to a time of uncertainty for judo. As assistant to General [[Douglas MacArthur]] during the [[occupation of Japan]], LeMay made practicing judo a routine part of Air Force tours of duty in Japan. Many Americans brought home stories of a "tiny old man" (Mifune) throwing down healthy, young men without any apparent effort. LeMay became a promoter of judo training and provided political support for judo in the early years after the war. For this, he was awarded the license of ''[[Shihan]]''. In addition, LeMay promoted judo within the armed forces of the United States.<ref>"{{usurped|1=[https://web.archive.org/web/20110724205450/http://www.456fis.org/CURTIS_E._LAMAY.htm General Curtis E.
