Hi Waks,
My Father was also a Desert Rat. The stories he would tell me as a young girl would make me laugh. Dad also told me that Rommel the German Commander wasn,t too bad and sometimes wouldn,t bother with the English troops. Other stories not so good and some kept from me. My 2nd Cousin,s Father was also a Desert Rat and if you would like I can contact him to see what I can findout for you?
