serverandenforcer 33 Posted May 13, 2009 (edited) If you feel that you may have suffered a heat stroke... report it to you supervisor IMMEDIATELY! Reason why I'm saying this is because this past monday, I was at Edwards AFB for training using simunitions (paintball round attached to an actual casing) praacticing an active shooter scenario with it being 100 degrees out. I thought I was.good untill I started working today. I was light headed driving in, unable to focus straight. Feeling very fatigued and deprtessed, and at the end of the day I left my weapon behind (which I've never done before) in the office to get something from my truck because I just could not focus. Fortunately for me, my superiors were able cue on the fact that something wasn't right with me for the whole day and I didn't get into any trouble. . But for leaving my weapon behind could've gotten someone killed, just because I thought I could tough it out. I think the airman's manual says that you should drink no more than 16 glasses of water if you have suffored a heat stroke. But anyways don't do what I did because you might end up doing something very regretable. Edited May 13, 2009 by serverandenforcer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 451 Posted May 13, 2009 I once had heatstroke on a trip to the zoo when I was a teenager. It was a very hot and humid day in Miami and I felt light headed and nauseous. Then I noticed everything got VERY bright because my pupils actually dilated, and I almost fell over. The funny part was I stopped feeling overheated when it happened.
