Staff Sgt. Paul J. Delekto demonstrates baton strikes during nonlethal weapons and level one oleoresin capsicum spray training aboard Camp Foster Aug. 14. According to Delekto, the security augmentation force instructor and staff noncommissioned officer with mobile training team, Provost Marshal’s Office, Marine Corps Base Camp Smedley D. Butler, Marine Corps Installations Pacific, nonlethal weapons training includes all weapons and techniques that are not inherently deadly, such as batons, defensive tactics, pepper-based spray, and mechanical-advantage control holds. “The JSGs receive the same training Marine military policemen receive,” said Delekto. “This training prepares them for real-life scenarios where an escalation of force is required, but lethal force is not.”
