most likely. see no reason to leave. of course if they have a job in iraq with some longevity and money attached I would go there LOL.

I just wish the ****heads in charge would make up their damn mind.

Yea its a circus here also:lol:

I've never seen such an unorganized cluster**** of mismanaging money and base shrinking until now.

Word from the big wigs of this base is 31 December for the last man to hop on that freedom bird outta this dump.

I'll do it. Ive had to do it a few times here and it's bearable, and the after effect does feel good but I never thought there was any long lasting benefits to it. If what they say is true I think this will help me some.

There's a 40% placebo effect for meds, treatments, and things like this. I will throw it into that category. Fat burn? you'll burn more calories but i'd be willing to bet taking the stairs instead of the escalator will burn more and suck less.

Just took my first one. Couldn't bring myself to go anymore than chest in so I turned the heat up til I could put my head under which wasn't much. After that I turned it back cold and stayed in that until I got done with my body wash. In bed now and feel amazing actually. I've felt this way before after riding my bike in cold temps. If that's the only real effects it does feel pretty amazing and relaxing. Will probably do again.

Don't worry about the supposed benefits, just do it and report your findings. I don't know about burning fat or anything of that shit, but I feel great.
