Yes, I did say 130 degree days. Basically, imagine yourself living inside a hair dryer that is always turned on at low speed. That’s what summer is like in Iraq, especially when I’m wearing my flak vest and Kevlar helmet. My pistol becomes uncomfortably hot to the touch and every pore sweats constantly.
