I was also stationed in ft worth tx. In 1980 the whole month of June it never got below 100 degrees during the day or less than 85 at night. I worked on flight line, concrete oven.

Thanks for your comments.
I'd also want to add you were younger back then and could take the heat better.
Maybe a lot of early deaths in older people years ago were contribute to weather and making a living outside in all kinds of weather.
