A long time ago, while I was still working for the military, I remember one thing that happened to me that I will never forget.

While in the military, you stay in a lot of strange places.

Sometimes, we would stay in nice hotels in foreign countries where we would discover the nicest conveniences possible. These places had everything that you could imagine, including the nicest air conditioners and heating systems. I mention heating systems and cooling systems because there were some hotels that we stayed at that didn’t have these things. It would be so hot without an air conditioner that we would lay drenched in sweat the whole night without any relief. Sometimes we would be in barracks with the other troops, where we had HVAC units that we constantly running. In fact, the military actually has HVAC technicians whose job is to fix the furnaces and air conditioners whenever they aren’t working. Sometimes, we would sleep on the ground or in a hammock, where you never felt the need for an air conditioner, but where a heating system would have been a very nice thing. The strangest thing that happened to me was when I stayed in a cabin that only had one small space heater to keep us warm. We feel asleep, but in the middle of the night, we woke up, and it was freezing cold. The space heater wasn’t working anymore, but there was clear liquid pouring out of the space heater. The liquid was oil, and it was incredibly hot. That was when we heard the next gunshot, and we realized that the enemy shot our space heater. We got out of there alive, but our space heater didn’t.
