You put on all your stuff they issue you at CIF, leaders look after their people, stay hydrated, and continue mission.

Sir great comment.... I know many soldiers who got screwed on their issue here. Weird things like wet weather bottoms. So I always try to hit inspection day one with new guys. Dead on.

It can get real cold, (not often though) we had some guys who wouldn't cover their ears with the bunny ears and ended up with frostbite.

I loved it back in 1990. Does
not really get too cold there in the winter. What you have to worry about is the awful drivers on Academy Blvd when it snows!

Fort Carson is the best place I've ever been, including as a civilian before I joined. I love Colorado and want to get back there as fast as I possibly can. The cold isn't really that big of a factor until you're in the motor pool with nothing to block the wind ha! Seriously tho, you're a lucky man, I was there for four years.

Great place to serve! Seriously, take up a winter activity and get out there and enjoy it.
