It was hotter than hades with a heat index of 105-107, No shade to be had and we had to cut the battle down from 1 hour to 30 minutes. My Battery had 2 men go down with heat exhustion and we had over 30 over all. We had a 9/11 service and a memorial to one of ours who died earlier this spring from a sudden Heart attack at age 50. It wasn't any fun and I for one will not be back unless the weather is a lot cooler.
