Borepatch reminds us there are worse things than walking from your air-conditioned car to your air-conditioned home in shorts and a t-shirt in 106º heat . . . for instance, wearing a pair of tall boots, a pair of long pants, an undershirt, a long-sleeve shirt, a 40lbs vest, 60lbs of gear and humping 10lbs of rifle, while running at full-speed in the middle of a firefight, in 122º heat.
Next time you see somebody in uniform, thank them for their service. They earned it.
