Senussi campaign in North Africa

The South African Brigade sail to Alexandria, Egypt to get involved in the campaign against the Senussi.

The main action of the 4th SAI is in the reoccupation of Sollum. In order to reach Sollum, the forces have to march from Bag Bag to Sollum over miles of desert and lack of water becomes a serious issue when they reach the well-named Thirsty Hill.
