Here we have studied and estimated the indices of the military personnel thermal state and pieces of military clothes both common and according to body areas (head, arm (shoulder and forearm) hands, hips, lower legs, feet) per unit of clothes area for selection and estimation of materials and structure of the outfit which shall provide the given thermal resistance. The cooling physiological limits and their endpoints were determined, taking into account the discomfort limitation based on warmth sense modalities. Functional indices of the military personnel are determined by the hypothermia criteria. The cold sense modalities of the body were determined based on the calculation of the heat deficit index.
