Special From Shot Show | Qore Performance ICE: Iceplate Carrier Exoskeleton |Tactical Rifleman

Lots of great new products at SHOT Show 2020. Not really. Lots of new items... new colors... new modifications; but nothing really new that really makes me wish hard that I had it back "in the day" of combat operations (I retired years ago).
So, I have walked the floor of SHOT for days; hunting for the holy grail. I found lots of great stuff, and visited with LOTS of great people. What really caught my eye? New laser targeting system? No. New flux capacitor? No. New plasma rifle with 20 kilowatt range? Nope.
I remember many a deployment in hot environments, watching guys putting ice cubes in their camelbaks; putting small bottles of water inside their pockets under their armor; and pouring ice water to saturate the sponge pads in their helmets... all just to keep their bodies cooler in combat. I say cooler, because you never got "cool." We experimented with coolant vests under armor, that you plugged in the system in the HMMWVee. Never worked well.
I remember one of the SF instructors at SFAS (Special Forces Selection Course), as the helicopter took off, saying for us to "drink more water, because the Soldier on that bird had a core temp of 105, and he is not coming back ever." Being a heat casualty weakens your body forever. You are never going to fully recover.
My job as a leader in Special Ops was easy: 1. Accomplish the Mission. 2. Care and welfare of the troops. So, as you watch this video and thing this is a "trivial cooler for body armor"; I want you to think of it through my eyes... where I NEVER, EVER, wanted to lose a Soldier, Friend, Family Member, Brother to enemy fire or natural event. Keep your troops comfortable, healthy, and safe; and you'll have a unit that will win the day.
Strength and Honor, TR.
