I remember being on a Resettlement Course with a NBC instructor (Pongo). We were looking at joining the Police and went on a 2 week course at Catterick on how to pass the tests etc.
We visited a Police training camp and while there they asked for a volunteer to do CS Spray test.
This NBC guy volunteerd and when the spray was sprayed initially in his general direction he didnt flinch.
In fact he took the spray off the nice young Police person (not sure what you call lady police now), and sprayed directly into his own face only to collapse screaming.
When she bent down to see if he was ok and if needed give Firt-Aid, he sat up and said I hate that stuff in my eyes and walked off. We all thought she was gonna s@it bricks and faint lol....
Afterwards he told us he had not used a Respirator in 10 years and used to set 2 cs cannisters off in his office as joke when he had visitors he didnt like (maybe the reson he wasnt on the 2OE list lol)....
