The setting almost had to have been North Africa, because that was the site of about the only desert warfare that the U.S. engaged in in World War II. I wonder if the program might have been based upon the unit the author of this book was in? I loved that show, for some reason.
Of course, I had to grab the book. Thanks for posting it.
