After being in Iraq for only 2 weeks, the tasty memories of an ice-cold Coke bottled in Baton Rouge (rather than a luke-warm Cola bottled in Iraq) are still fresh in David D'Aquin's mind. But as the weeks roll by in a less-than-hospitable environment, most Americans who are deployed or working in Iraq get used to the local adaptations of American culture. In this video, D'Aquin shows us a few necessary adaptations that have been made to make Iraq feel a little like home.
