I have seen the same thing. Back in the 1960’s the redneck cowboys and the military men would fight. Same thing...after about two minutes and some real good punching and kicking, the fight would die down and then with all exhausted, the thing would end. Sometimes it was the athletes against the cowboys, sometimes airmen against athletes, airmen against the soldiers, and sometimes just a real donnybrook. No one pulled a knife, no one pulled a gun and most of the time the thing ended with all drinking together.

Yep, been there, done that as you have described. Even donated a tooth and a few broken hand bones and a few fat lips..... then “we” all would have a beer or three and call it a night.

You should see what happens when the Royal Navy makes a port call in Austrailia, this was nothing.....
