In the Eye of the Inferno

Old War Dogs:

I'm going to have to be secretive about how I ended up with this but I still hope you'll take time to read it and learn a little more about how one of John Kerry's idiots (Columbia University, Class of '04) has been spending his time. I think you'll enjoy it.

I sometimes played cricket with my friends in Saudi Arabia. The temperature would often rise up to the high 40s. I remember once we all decided to stop the game and go home at around 10:30 a.m. because it was too damn hot.

Still, it could have been worse: Kuwait. Every time I watched the weather report of the Middle East, Kuwait would top the charts. We're talking about 48 to 50 degrees Celsius. The feeling one gets in 45+ is something like a headache + nausea + sensing the brain is being cooked.

It is thus quite impressive to see US soldiers in full gear in that frying pan.

Poor bastards. Did it back in my day (running around with full gear in 50C heat). It takes about a week without AC to go insane in such conditions.

Strength and courage to them.

"Strength and courage to them."

Ditto.
