W/ATER . just plain drinking
w water :. is mighty scarce item
to American soldiers now in the North
African deserts. And what little water
they can find, often isn't fit to drink.
So before our soldiers were landed in
Africa, they were put through stiff course
of training to wean them away from drink
ing water. They were taught to dip water
from streams in cups, and add dash of
iodine before drinking This served the
double purpose of disinfecting the water,
and of making it taste pretty terrible.
Each time, heavier dash of iodine was
added (but never enough to be dangerously,
until finally the soldiers lost all desire for
drinking water except in prepared drinks.
