The Desert Rats

They crawled their way across the blazing sands of Africa... to turn disaster into victory!

German Field Marshal Rommel and his troops have pushed back British forces in North Africa and now set their sights on Tobruk, a vital port city. A ramshackle group of Australian reinforcements is placed under the command of British Captain MacRoberts, a gruff disciplinarian. The unruly Australians immediately clash with him, but this unorthodox team must band together to protect Tobruk from the German forces.
