We've done deployments in the Middle East. We've seen it get hot. We've driven in sand storms, and killed camel spiders. What is the hottest temperature you've experienced in full battle rattle?

Basra Iraq 08-09 It was so hot, plus the humidity making things worse. I've never seen my m4 sweat like it did those few days.

I can not say exactly, but in August 2012 our ship was involved in a collision in the Strait of Hormuz. We sailed to Jebel Ali, UAE for repairs. No AC on the ship in the August heat of Dubai. It was so bad we couldn't go inside the ship for anything without a partner and water, just in case we passed out from heat exhaustion.
Oh and last month I was in Masada, Israel "The Hottest Place on Earth"!

OK, and and old Master Chief has to say it first, you ladies sure did look hot! At least you all had the sense to wear hats.

We bought them there. The good thing is it was dry heat, so we didn't really have to deal with humidity.
