Saw your post.
I’ve sparred with Marines including a Marine Combat Instructor. Bragging: I actually landed a few blows. Reality: he landed a LOT more. And I had 20 years of various martial arts under my belt.
Too old and decrepit to do that kind of thing any more (but still not muggable by punks).
Trust me, if the Marines wanted to break these pukes, they could have despite being maced etc. The Marines showed admirable restraint.
That’s good to know...I got pepper spray on me once someplace on my body (long story, somewhat funny, but NOT my eyes) and I can’t imagine how it feels getting that in the eyes...
