I got frostbite 3x over there. All while running ranges.I loved the sound of the Yukon stove when it was humming. Alaska was the only place I have ever been where you lay the howitzer after setting up your tent and stove. Normally, the first thing you do is lay the howitzer for the direction of fire first. But, in the winter, it was so cold that we had to set up the tents and fire up the Yukon stove so that if anyone felt early signs of frostbite coming on, they would go to the tent to warm up and then come back out and help finish emplacing (lay) the howitzer.
