    They didn’t have those when I went through basic in '98, but then again we only had two days of FTX and basic was 6 weeks long total.

    What they did have was arctic sleeping bags. You don’t need a heated tent with one of those things. Sleep more than 30 minutes (which was about how long they gave us that night) and you’re sweating, even in the cold.
