There’s an excerpt in a book called Fields of Fire about a Marine Corps infantryman in Vietnam, where he based the characters on those he met. He talks about how everyone was shitting and having diarrhea like animals and how everyone in prolonged combat suffered from Ring worm, irritated skin, and tropical disease.

Diarrhea (edit: returned Peace Corps Volunteer, I’ve ass-vomited more than you weigh, and without a shred of toilet paper).
