Methinks we should take a look at the current uniform and gear worn by US combat troops in the heat and think what we do/wear ain't that bad.
While I didn't wear a BP vest as a lineman, some times needed one being shot at twice.
Wearing a long sleeved cotton T with a NOMEX fire retardant long sleeved shirt over that in August TX heat working on a creosote fume releasing pole for 8-10 hours a day makes me appreciate and tolerate ATGATT .
And watching the city Motos running radar under the trees and drinking water from our truck cooler...I'm not too sympathetic I say with a of course.
