My friend R (very cool dude) in Iraq phoned me the other day. He says it's about 120 degrees there now (outdoors w/no AC). So I sent him some cooling neck wraps, aka a Neck Bandoo. I am not sure if it will help much with all his gear on, but you never know. I think if I were in 120 degree heat in full gear I'd have to soak in an ice filled tub.
The site has a program where you can donate one to a military person and they ship it for free. You can donate to someone you know or just a random soldier. Now that's awfully cool for $5.50.
Of course he will look a little more manly, but you get the idea:

Wow, what a great idea!! Neckbandoo...that is such a funny name, but hey, if it does the trick, right? How long does it take to get something over to Iraq? Thanks for sharing the info!
