In the air forces basic training, we were made to recite this clause every morning during our initial formation and at various times throughout the day:

All trainees are reminded: drink 1/2 to 3/4 canteen per hour, not to exceed 12 canteens per day. You will drink 3 non-caffinated, non carbonated beverages with each and every meal.

I guess they were serious!
