Re: Hmmm - The Marines are getting new boots for fights in freezing temperatures as low as -20 degrees
Marines are getting new boots that can survive in temperatures as low as -20 degrees Fahrenheit, the Corps said Tuesday, revealing that the boots fill a longstanding gap in Marine footwear.

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.

They want to prevent an incident similar to Napoleon's buttons failure in Russia.

"Napoleon’s Army May Have Suffered From the Greatest Wardrobe Malfunction in History
Historians still puzzle over Napoleon’s catastrophic Russian defeat, but materials scientists think the army’s buttons may be to blame..
200 years ago, Napoleon’s army took on the Russians in the Battle of Maloyaroslavets. 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.”

wanna see how much money the military wastes?

go check out the boneyard in Arizona.

its an amazing sight. and i believe in our defense and support our military.

but there is easily 40 trillion sitting in the desert.

we should at least sell those barely operable jets to the africans or mexico, or Australia or some other shithole country.

over 200 c-130s....mothballed. 11.9 million each.

They're cooperating with the Michigan Militia for war games in Detroit.

It is not only vain, but wicked, in a legislator to frame laws in opposition to the laws of nature, and to arm them with the terrors of death. This is truly creating crimes in order to punish them.

Its actually an asteroid belt that we go through like clockwork and we base civilization off of disasters not golden periods because the disasters are more definite so if we did every 25k years they would start and stop the calendar on or slightly after the disaster.
