    Colossally stupid question

    OK, So I'm deploying as a contractor wienie to support our folks over in the box. I'm supposed to wear DCU's and NOT carry a rifle. Nervous might be a bit of an understatement if I wind up in the wrong place/time. I want good body armor, but I don't want to go into heat stroke in the...
