In 1973 I was stationed in 29 Palms MCB in California desert and used to ride my motorcycle to Vegas to visit relatives.
I saw several cases of heatstroke during heavy workouts and training. The ‘dry heat’ just makes it worse, as you don’t know it’s coming until it hits you................
The Cardinals seem to be dealing alright with a similar climate in Phoenix. Retractable roof (and field), air conditioned everything, and moderate temperatures from October to April. I think they’ll be able to cope.
I spent 3 year in 29 Palms with 5th Bn 11th Marines. Sept 1986-Sept 1989. It was by far my favorite duty station.
