Desert Warfare
'"Desert warfare is very much like sea warfare," Avrites a veleran of the Libyan campaign, "all navigating was done by compass at night and sun compass by day with tin; aid of maps, protractors and other instruments. All this navigation was necessary as there are no landmarks in the desert except an occasional mound or a . Bedouin grave or hut."
