U.S. Air Force reservist Staff Sgt. Hector Ramora, temporarily assigned to the 47th Security Forces Squadron, winces in pain from a level one contamination of oleoresin capsicum on Laughlin Air Force Base, Texas, Feb. 27, 2015. OC is a natural oil found in many types of hot peppers, including cayenne peppers and other chili peppers, and when sprayed into the face of an attacker is extremely irritating to the skin, eyes, mouth, throat and lungs. Its effect is immediate and powerful, helping to distract a person long enough to escape an assailant or for a police officer to take control of a subject. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt.
