Overview:
Based on the events portrayed in the movie "Sahara" (1943). Following the fall of Tobruk, United States Sergeant Joe Gunn commands the remaining tank of a small American detachment assigned to the British Eighth Army. After the destruction of its unit, the isolated Grant, "Lulubelle," moves through the barren terrain of North Africa, attempting to return to Allied lines. The tank picks up British, French, South African and Sudanese soldiers along the way, becoming a microcosm of the Allied forces. As water becomes short, the Sudanese troops direct the group to the site of a known well, Bir Acrumba. Upon arrival, the group finds that the well provides a scant amount of water, barely enough for the handful of men. The group occupies the well area, including a small house nearby. Not long after their arrival, a German force also arrives looking for water. Not satisfied with Sergeant Gunn's offer of "guns for water," the German unit attempts the forceful method.Attacker: German (Mechanized Battalion)
