There is no humidity in the desert, you need moisture for that.

Im pretty sure people frequently die at 153f.....thats like 60 or 70c..

and people frequently die from heat stroke at 50c.

I think you must be mistaken about the temperature.

So apparently your going to an areas that will be 70c, and wearing heavy clothing. There is no way you can survive the heat.

People were dropping from heat stroke left and right. Over 20 went down in the first 40 minutes, and this is from people used to working in over 110 degree heat.

So the war on Iraq is being foiled by heat? Lame.


You'd think they would make you guys wear lighter clothing, or like, stay wet or something, bring portable a/c somehow.

Billions are going into the miltary to take down the Iraqis ( i think) yet nothing is being done to stop the attack that is heat stroke.

So sad..


So in the end, Americas militarys biggest enemy is Mr.Sun. All smug up in the sky, raining invisible death upon you all..

It's like... 25°C I think. Not as hot as last year.
