Were there any American units that wore shorts into combat? As Californian heat arrives for summer, I was just wondering if there were any. Other wise I would have to start a desert rat impression.

I dont believe there were. However, as a reenactor, you should be able to handle heat- its what they would have gone through.

UDT Frogmen are the only ones that come to mind. I agree with LZZAH1944. Gut it out son. its part of what we do when we deliberately step into another time and another place. Your understanding and appreciation for history and these brave men and woman will go up considerably. You are going to have to indure very little by comparison. if you're actually skirmishing in the California brush you'll quickly gleen an appreciation for fabric coverings as you crawl, tumble jog and slither through dust, rocks, and bramble brush.
