"Mace: A Symbol of Strength, History, and Independence" From the battlefields to the boxing ring, it has left its mark throughout history. The Staffordshire Regiment proudly carried their maces as a symbol of honor and bravery. Jem Mace, a renowned boxer in his time, fought with determination and skill just like the warriors who wielded maces on ancient battlefields.
