I collapsed during basic training in the summer at Ft Leonard Wood from heat stroke. I ended up in the hospital with a temperature of about 105.5 by the time they got me there. They put ice packs on me and set up an IV to hydrate me.

What happened was that I was sick and trying to push through it rather than going to sick call and getting a profile because I was afraid I would physically fall behind and I didn't want to look week. It was stupid and honestly I could have killed myself by just trying to push past the fact that I had a fever for days and was coughing up blood every night.

Ultimately they gave me anti-biotics, had me in a hospital for a couple of days and put me on a profile for about a week and I still graduated basic on time but this is often how people die in military training.
Fort lost in the woods was brutal. I remember arriving 10 degree weather in January and leaving in 100 degree weather in may
