Working Behind Enemy Lines The LRDG (Long Range Desert Group) was a British unit which served in North Africa during WWII, performing reconnaissance and raiding duties behind enemy lines. Their command cars were typically trucks which had been modified with heavy weaponry and a number of accessories. They proved to be a thorn in the side of German and Italian units in the area. |
