And to think they still feel the need to wear vest in that heat. Suicide vest, but vest nonetheless.

I had a roommate who served in Baghdad and he said he hotter than you can imagine. Had full gear too. Said he would drink gallons of water a day and hardly ever piss

Just think how prosperous they would be if it weren't for the Taliban.

If they keep fricking around, one day it'll be 4000 degrees over there, and they'll long for the days of 160.

High dewpoints and moisture. I wonder what the heat index is of boiling water ? jk
Posted on 7/31/15 at 6:31 pm to Cruiserhog
I remember temps in the 120s maybe low 130s while over there.

Its normally close to 120 this time of year in Phoenix, we have just been VERY lucky this summer. Anyways now is when he should go all in with drone strikes on ISIS and do some mass bombing of their oil fields. Cutting off their money fountains and adding fires and smoke to their heat would be awesome! You know Trump would be all over it.....

It's definitely hit over there. Went over there several times.
My first trip to the Middle East was Kuwait in 1996. It was hot as frick. The only water we had was pallets of water bottles and no ice. The only way you could tolerate drinking that got arse water was to soak a wool sick in water and wrap it over the bottle. That way it would at least get under 100 degrees to drink it.

I always though those frickers were just thirsty. They need some Gatorade dropped on them.

Doesn't affect me. Don't care.

Yowza! That's about 35 degrees hotter than what we've been experiencing in southern LA the past two weeks. Just think about that for a minute.
