Question

How the American troops are dealing with the humitidy in the Middle East?

Answer 1

by sweating, just like we do in florida or new mexico or texas or nevada or california.  and then we drink a lot of water.

Answer 2

Simple, we get acclimated and drink a lot of water.

Acclimatization means that your body adjusts to the climate that you are in, usually takes 30-days for body adjustment.  And Iraq is humid, it borders the sea!  And if you drink plenty of water, your body will maintain its core temperature.  That what they teach in kindergarten.  If you do not have plenty of liquid inside of you, you're going to suffer from either heat cramps, heat exhaustion, or worse...heat stroke!  

Your body is made up of 70-percent water, or something like that.  We were required to drink quarts and quarts of water daily to ensure we stay 'cool' and not become a heat casualty by sweating and replacing the water lost.  

And believe it or not, salt plays an important tool of staying hydrated.  Contrary to the belief that salt dehydrates you, not true.  It does make you thirsty but it actually retains the water in your body.  If you ever been to the Middle East, you'll occasionally see salt flats.  If you step on the crusty surface, you'll notice that there is water within the salty mush because water cannot evaporate due to the high-salt content.  

But saltwater is deadly however, that will dehydrate you because the chemical bond of salt and water mixed at a molecular level.  Since salt retains water, all that saltwater will just push on out collecting every water molecule you need to thrive.
