The shaded area of the map lying along the Egyptian-Libyan border is the Great Sand Sea, and L.R.D.G. patrols were the first military force to cross it. Uweinat, on the border, Aujila in the north, Kufra in the south, and Murzuk and Traghen in the south-west are landmarks in the epic journeys of the desert raiders. Their voyages took them also to the Free French province of Chad, south of Libya, and to the Sudan.
