00:04.140 --> 00:07.630
it's really hot . Second oven , It's

00:07.630 --> 00:09.963
just the beginning of summer in Baghdad ,

00:09.963 --> 00:11.908
but troops are already feeling the

00:11.908 --> 00:15.280
effects of 110° heat as troops

00:15.280 --> 00:17.558
continue their door to door operations .

00:17.558 --> 00:19.724
As part of the Baghdad security plan ,

00:19.724 --> 00:21.836
there is only one thing to do to stay

00:21.836 --> 00:23.947
hydrated and fit for duty . I think a

00:23.947 --> 00:26.760
lot of water , put water on your body .

00:28.040 --> 00:31.030
People sell cold . The heat is already

00:31.040 --> 00:32.984
taking a toll on the troops on the

00:32.984 --> 00:36.680
ground . Guys are

00:36.690 --> 00:39.220
physically and mentally done for 1200

00:41.410 --> 00:45.360
and then after that , I don't take a

00:45.360 --> 00:47.320
lot of breaks , take your time ,

00:47.330 --> 00:50.040
because uh you know , the other day

00:50.050 --> 00:52.690
yesterday we had contact their

00:52.690 --> 00:55.290
maneuvering on someone almost done ,

00:55.400 --> 00:58.650
guys falling to refer to the strike our

00:58.650 --> 01:00.380
vehicle at the green oven and

01:00.380 --> 01:02.547
rightfully so with temperatures rising

01:02.547 --> 01:04.491
daily , the guys cannot even get a

01:04.491 --> 01:06.750
break inside their vehicles were at

01:06.750 --> 01:09.550
like four vehicles with Getting AC for

01:09.550 --> 01:11.772
the vehicles will make a big difference

01:11.772 --> 01:13.661
in keeping troops ready for their

01:13.661 --> 01:16.910
missions . Taking an assessment from my

01:18.540 --> 01:21.560
guys are starting to get a lot hotter

01:21.870 --> 01:24.740
than 1500 timelines almost .

01:24.980 --> 01:26.830
Yes , they will because

01:28.840 --> 01:31.062
when they go into the house of level of

01:31.062 --> 01:32.920
church , not as good as when you

01:32.930 --> 01:35.510
started and what advice do the troops

01:35.520 --> 01:37.353
back onto those just arriving in

01:37.353 --> 01:39.430
Baghdad hydrate and there's no real

01:39.430 --> 01:41.650
good advice to shame . And there's no

01:41.650 --> 01:43.594
advice . It's the only way to stay

01:43.594 --> 01:45.400
alert and scale out
