It's Christmas 1942 and while C-in-C North Africa Sir Harold Alexander confers with his aide, an 8th Army "Tommy" shares his Christmas day ration of rum with a DAK "Fritz" in the theater of war described by historians John Bierman & Colin Smith as "WAR WITHOUT HATE". Nearby a caravan of camels reminds us of an earlier desert journey to celebrate the meaning of this day. Randy
