Fermenting N/A

Does anyone remember reading a story a few years back about a homebrewer/soldier stationed in Iraq or Kuwait that added yeast and sugar to n/a beer and fermented it? I have a buddy who is in similar dire straits and is interested in at least looking at the details but I cannot find anything even remotely close on the web. I think it may have been around Desert Storm but cant be sure. Any help, anybody?

Access to non-alcoholic beer is better then no beer I guess! Seems as if it would be easier to make a better tasting product out of fruit beverages instead of N/A beer. They might be a little bit more available too. Apple juice, grape juice, etc. Just add yeast and viola!

As for the actual story I'm not sure. It's a pretty fundamental way to make booze. Seems like there are tons of stories out their like that. Inmates, backpackers, homebrewers

Don't recall the story, but 1.5 oz of sugar per 12 oz bottle of NA will give you ~4.5% ABV.
