Deep in the heart of the vast North African desert, where scorching heat pierces through the air, lies a forgotten chapter of history.

However, not all of them managed to return home.
The Stories of Desolation
The ghosts of war still lurk between the dunes, whispering their stories of desolation to those who dare to listen. From abandoned military camps to forgotten supply routes, each of these haunting sites tells a tale of sacrifice and tragedy.
One such place is the Sunken City of Tobruk, where the remnants of a once-thriving port town now lie beneath the waves. During the war, Tobruk was fiercely contested, with both sides fighting for control of this strategic location. Now, only the crumbling ruins and rusted military machinery bear witness to the battles that ravaged the area.
Another poignant site is the Deserted Oasis of El Guettar, where weary soldiers sought refuge from the relentless scorching sun. It stands as a solemn reminder of the hardships endured by those who fought in these arid lands. The eerie silence that engulfs the oasis is interrupted only by the whispers of long-lost souls.
Chasing the Ghosts
For the intrepid traveler, exploring the haunting remnants of war can be a deeply moving and surreal experience. These forgotten battlefields, abandoned buildings, and empty landscapes evoke a sense of nostalgia for a time long past.
But it is not just history that draws people to these ghostly sites. There is an ethereal quality to the desert, as if the spirits of fallen soldiers still roam the vast expanse. Some even claim to have heard distant gunfire or echoes of wartime songs carried by the wind.
Preserving the Past
Efforts are being made to preserve these historical sites and honor the memory of those who fought bravely. From museums showcasing wartime artifacts to organizations dedicated to documenting the stories of veterans, the spirit of remembrance lives on.
Visiting these places is not about glorifying war but rather paying homage to the sacrifices made by those who came before us. It serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of conflict and the importance of working towards a peaceful future.
A Tribute to the Fallen
AWOL in North Africa: Ghosts of War takes us on a journey through the haunted remnants of a bygone era. It tells the stories of ordinary men and women who found themselves thrust into extraordinary circumstances, fighting for their lives in an unforgiving desert.
As the sun sets over this solemn landscape, the ghosts of war whisper their final goodbyes. They may be forgotten by many, but their spirits endure, forever haunting the North African desert.

Anderson and his friends Greg and Julie have been doing everything they can to avoid the battered trunk full of old military things in his family's junk shop basement. Only, staying away seems impossible, and this time Anderson discovers a dusty World War II medic's bag inside the trunk. But who does it belong to? Because if the friends have learned anything, it's that they are about to be face-to-face with a ghost.
When an army medic ghost appears, Anderson's not sure how to help him. Or if he should help him. The ghost claims he was stationed in North Africa during World War II. But as far as Anderson knows, World War II was fought in Europe. So what's the real story behind this ghost?
Can Anderson, Greg, and Julie solve the mystery, or have they become part of a dangerous haunting?
