DS gave us a big scare while at IBOLC this week. He was doing the 12 mile ruck march for time when he collasped about 200 meters from the end due to heat exhaustion. Body temp was 104. They rushed him to hospital where he spent two nights in ICU. Yesterday they transferred him to regular room. Haven't heard from him today but hoping he will be released. He was scheduled to start Ranger school Sept 9 but looks like that will get pushed back for awhile. He has always excelled at all physical activity so this caught us by suprise. Two others also went down due to the heat. Moral of the story is that even if you are a workout warrior the elements can still get to you.
