Chapter 1 He checked his face in the small mirror hanging on the tent post. Satisfied, he wiped the blade of the cutthroat razor and placed it against its twin in the leather case.

The razors had belonged to his Grandfather, liberated from the saddle bags of an Ulan officer during the First World War.

He slipped on his shirt shivering in the cold, morning air. The sun had not yet fully risen over the horizon, but soon it would be hot, very hot.

Putting on his Australian Slouch hat and carrying his washing bowl, he ducked under the camouflage net that hid his tent.

He poured out the water and watched the sand greedily soak it up, placing the bowl by the box next to his tent's entrance, he then turned to walk towards the mess tent.

The men were already sitting there eating their breakfast before the flies arrived with the heat of the sun.

"Morning Boss," Sargent Blake murmured, "bloody bullied beef again."

Lieutenant Shaun Ramage smiled and nodded. Taking the mug of tea handed to him by Sammy, he sat down, removing from his top shirt pocket a pack of twenty five Gold Leaf cigarettes. Selecting one he lit it with his brass Zippo.

"Cuppa tea and a cough as usual Boss?" Corporal 'Titch' Anderson, the patrols mechanic, observed.

"You know me too well," Shaun murmured, "have you had a chance to look it over?" Referring to the engine belonging to 'Sue,' the patrol's 30cwt Chevrolet truck.

"The valves are shot and the rings on three, four and six need replacing. The whole engine is pretty well knackered boss." Titch replied mournfully.

Titch had worked for the Bentley racing team before joining up, and was in Shaun's opinion, one of the best mechanics in North Africa. The fact he had managed to coax Sue back to base after their last road watch spoke volumes for his ability.

"I'm going into Alex tomorrow, we'll call in to Aly Barber's Bazar and see if he has anything. I've given up hope waitin' on channels, the request for a new engine has been in for over a month now." Shaun replied.

He turned to Sargent Blake, "What do we have to interest Aly Barber Jack?"

Sargent Jack Blake was ex-Guards, a survivor of Dunkirk, and had twenty years of service behind him. He had lost his wife and two kids in an early Luftwaffe raid on Portsmouth, and had requested his transfer to the Long Range Desert Group in order to hurt the enemy.

Initially he had found the casual attention to military discipline within the group somewhat strange after the rigidness of the Guards. But had soon learned that each member of the patrol was an expert in their own field, and respected has such.

"Four Lugers, two P37's, and two Leica cameras. We have four Iron Crosses and a Knights Cross. There's a couple of their flags, a bit scorched around the edge. A case of Johnny Walkers and 800 cigarettes... oh, and 6 jerry cans, 'Betty' won't be needing them now.
