2. I has to work in death valley one time in 127 degree heat...
I did that for a week, but I could wear shorts, stop in an A/C trailer when it became to much and no one was shooting at me. I can't even imagine how these guys do it day after day in full body armor. Heat like that is unrelenting. I will make a person nutty.

God help them.
