I found them to be hot, but then my last duty station was HHOC, 105th Military Intelligence Battalion (CEWI), 5th (Mechanized) Infantry Division, Fort Polk, Louisiana.

When they first implemented BDUs it seemed cooler places (Lakenheath, UK) only carried summer weight BDUs and hotter places (Barksdale, LA) only carried winter weight BDUs.

Yeah, ours were winter weight. I never wore them there except for one formation where they required it. I felt sorry for those guys as I waived to them from the rear-view mirror of my brand-new Ford EXP. Remember those? LOL
