DZs (drop zones) ar ft. Bragg are white sand. In the summer the sun
reflects back from the sand and you can get sunburned in odd places like under your chin. Also with the humidity it is just miserable.

I was at Lejeune (arty) in '69 and made at least three trips to Bragg for combined exercises, operations, etc. Yeah, summer was always hot as holy hell there too.
When I got out in October, I returned home to upstate NY ... and froze my @ss off. :)
