    Lance Cpl. Joseph Flores grips his face in pain and attempts to pose for a photo after being sprayed in the face with oleoresin capsicum, or OC spray, and running through a confidence course March 6 on Marine Corps Air Station Futenma, Okinawa. “It’s like your face is on fire,” said Flores. Flores and other Marines temporarily assigned to the security augment force of Marine Corps Installations Pacific-Marine Corps Base Camp Butler, Japan, were introduced to the visceral sensation of the irritant to understand its effects and how to operate if they were exposed while spraying an assailant. Flores is a Houston, Texas, native and an aviation communication systems technician with Marine Aviation Support Squadron 2, Marine Air Control Group 18, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, III Marine Expeditionary Force.
