Hot.

It was so hot, the sweat wouldn't stop even if I just stood around quietly, and if I moved around, I would only start sweating more.

And not only that, the sand around my feet was like a burning hell under the blazing sun. I felt like an egg in a frying pan, sunny-side-up.

This was Tobruk, a strategically important city in Africa. Ever since the time of the Roman Empire, it has been an influential colony in Cyrenaica, and a central meeting point for caravans. Even now, it had a fortress and the largest port in Cyrenaica, and even an airbase, so it was where the Africakorps of the Joint Human Forces had been stationed.
