Quoting: AggregateThreat Early next year, Marines will begin receiving the Intense Cold Weather Boot, giving them the ability to fight better in challenging, cold-weather environments, Marine Corps Systems Command said. Right now, the Corps has a Temperate Weather marine Corps Combat Boot for operations in temperatures between 20 degrees and 60 degrees Fahrenheit and an Extreme Cold Weather Vapor Barrier Boot for temperatures between -20 degrees and -65 degrees.

Though a French victory, the battle marked a major strategic setback, as the Russians moved to block Napoleon’s path of retreat out of their country. In the end, only 10,000 Frenchmen out of an initial half a million made it out of Russia alive.Ainissa Ramirez, a materials scientist at Yale University, explains that the bonding structure of tin atoms begins to change when temperatures drop below 56°F, and tin was the major metal used to make buttons in the French army’s uniforms. As the severe Russian temperatures approached -30°C, the buttons may have turned to dust. In other words, the harsh Russian winter, combined with the chemical properties of tin, may have led to “the greatest wardrobe malfunction in history.” Last Edited by Hermit 48 on 12/03/2020 10:31 PM |
