So here's Andrew Flavell waiting for his Gatorade! He's the 4th person from the end.

Per Charlie Battery, 1-79 FA Basic Combat Training, "During the Oklahoma Summer, temperatures regularly exceed 100 degrees. To ensure our Trainees don’t succumb to the heat, we implement heat mitigation. This typically starts with a uniform change where we roll up our sleeves and pants cuffs. We also have a cooling tent with air conditioning to periodically cool off in. Additionally, we hand out Gatorade for them to drink to replace lost electrolytes. We also reduce the amount of physical activity they do. Today we are doing classes for field craft and tactical movements."
