#1 Nice assessment w/thumbs, bent wrists, et. al.
This is not only a unarmed CQC exercise, they are also training vest wearing range-of-motion.

The masks are hot yes, but they also conceal one's features not just from the cameras but also the training cohort. It may be intended that these people, the 'vesters' not recognize each other. Though in the final RPG photo, body language would suggest some do.

#3 Skidmark, thank you.

Shipman, you are a delightful silly. I was sparring with Mr. Wife -- what would he have taught me?
