Some US Soldiers Forced to Steal Water in Iraq
Jeremy Rogalski, KHOU-TV: "Take Houston's heat on a miserable summer day and add 40 degrees, making temperatures 130 or more. Next, add an extra 100 pounds of life-protecting gear to your body: bulletproof vests, guns and ammunition. And then imagine not having enough water around to drink. Stories of short supplies have haunted the US military throughout the war in Iraq - things like inadequate body armor or unshielded Hummers. But while many soldiers say they had good access to water and even Gatorade, the 11 News Defenders discovered that others, stationed all over the country and during all phases of this desert war, say something else was often missing."
