Ok, well, let's go ahead throw the "Military bases in the Arctic" out the window, because I'm sure those bases have walls, doors, heating units, etc... unless you're suggesting they just have rows and rows of terminals sitting on tables outside?
As far freezing the RAM, yep, you're right. All a would be hacker has to do is get the military tech to fire up a session of SEL, do their work...and when the military tech is done, the hacker can ask them to hold the screwdriver while the hacker freezes the RAM chips, takes them out, loads them up... then he's off to perform forensics.
...I'm sure the military tech won't mind.
