KHOU-Houston’s investigative team found many soldiers deployed throughout Iraq weren’t getting enough water for extended periods of time. Depending on where they were stationed, troops received only three liters of water a day for all of their needs when military documents show they should have been receiving nearly five times that amount. As a result, some units would go on dangerous raids to steal water and veterans are reporting severe health and kidney problems.
