Every day. Don't appreciate what you have until you don't have it. Went 5 weeks without a shower and clean BDU's during the Persian Gulf War. Never again....
 
It really depends on what is going on.

Yard work = shower when done
Work to home to work = 2-3 days
Work at camp w no water = dude wipes and a shower when back at home
 
General Sherman's troops fought the rebs in GA summer sun for 70 some days before getting a chance to cool off/clean up in the river outside Atlanta.

That’s nasty. Disease not related to battle injuries killed about 2/3 of every soldier that died during the war. Roughly 400,000 to 500,000 of the estimated 620,000-750,000 that died

Military hygiene matters.

In their Afghan war, the Soviet formations were generally at never more than 60% strength due to disease losses.

During the French conquest of Madagascar, of 15,000 men involved, KIA numbered 25, against 6000 dead from disease.
