Fort Lauderdale, FL - WaterPure International, Inc. proposes U.S. military commands reconsider flying in millions of bottles of water to the troops and instead create their own water using Atmospheric Water Generators (AWGs). An infantry squad encamped in a remote area can plug an AWG into a portable generator, produce three to five gallons of pure, safe, fresh, delicious drinking water per day from the air around it, and no longer be totally dependent upon having enough cases of drinking water on hand. The 93 lb. AWG from WaterPure International is approximately the same size as a typical water cooler but does not require the inverted five gallon bottle.

"Based on published reports, it seems as if everyone in Iraq is dependent on the availability of bottled water. No one drinks the tap water; it is considered contaminated and has high salinity. Everyone relies on bottled water. It makes sense to have some alternatives just in case there are delays logistically. Instead of beingrelying on the availability of such a critical resource, we are suggesting commanders use our AWGs as the pure, safe, fresh, delicious drinking water option for the ground troops," notes Paul Lipschutz, Chairman of the Board, WaterPure International, Inc.
