Smelling of Roses

No one would have believed that two reluctant Desert Rats, Sparks and Miller, could become front page heroes, but then no one would have believed how hard they tried to avoid it, either!Sparks and Miller are two ordinary soldiers desperate to aboid any action and enjoy a nice quiet war. They can hardly believe their bad luck when, despite all of their efforts to duck out of the desert conflict, they hit the headlines as full-blown heroes.A chance encounter with a low-flying Messerschmitt was more than they had bargained for, but unintentionally exposing a German spy ring, capturing a detachment of Italians by accident and destroying Rommel's secret fuel dump quite by chance makes them wonder if this stupid war will never leave them alone.
