Big Harry, it has more to do with the capacity of the generators to power these units (and the quantity of them) and to limit the amount of maintenance calls they are inundated with because of all the units that freeze over because they are set at such low temps for long periods of time. I dont know your daughter, but it sounds like a little sniveling to me.

Sniveling? Possibly, she is due with her third child in a few days and would like her Gunny to be home for the birth. This mandate has nothing to do with the generators. It is in the same vein as the recent reduction of hot food rations, removal of the crosses on the chapels, and the restraints on the chaplains not to mention Jesus in their prayers or sermons. It is a well orchestrated attempt to cow the military into absolute submission to the communists in charge.

While it's easy to be "offended" by anything that takes something away from the military, I'm all-in with you on this one Gunny (God but I have respected the Gunny's I have met over the years - thanks). The hotter it is outside, the "warmer" it needs to be indoors to prevent shock (in both directions) and 77 is perfectly comfortable down here in a Mississippi Summer.

The main problem with AC units ‘freezing’ over is when the Freon charge is low. That, coupled with high humidity. If it dry and arid, I wouldn’t suspect they are freezing over so much as the temperature differential cooling of the units just can’t handled it in 125 degree heat.
