There were not showers available to the soldiers during World War II. Bathing was done in large wash tubs that were filled with water. Soldiers would strip and climb into the tub for their allotted bathing time. Their clothing was fumigated to help control the lice. Soldiers would also bath in small rivers and creeks when they had the opportunity.

During the Vietnam War, men in the field have traditionally used rivers, creeks, or water cans poured into their steel helmets to clean themselves. In large base camps their were often wooden shacks (hootches)/or tents that were desigated "shower points."
