Insights into the daily lives of history's fighting men and women, past and present, detailing their motivation, training, tactics, weaponry and experiences One of the most celebrated units of the Desert War, the Long Range Desert Group was tasked with strategic reconnaissance and raiding operations deep inside the enemy-held deserts of North Africa. Unlike conventional forces, tied to the coastal plateau by logistical requirements, its patrols ranged across vast expanses of unexplored desert to the south, penetrating deep into hostile territory. This is a detailed study of the life of an LRDG patrolman, including a look at the hardships of life in the desert and the ways in which these men overcame both their environment and their enemy.
