The Neidermeyer | |
| Adventure in Sahara / int_be991863 | comment |
The Neidermeyer: Captain Savatt is a martinet who lives to make the life of the men under command hell. His punishments include making one soldier stand watch on the walls of the fort for two days straight; without relief and without food or water. The soldier goes blind and falls from the wall to his death. His cruelty eventually lead the legionnaires to stage a mutiny. | |

Sea of Sand | |
| Adventure in Sahara / int_c689efe5 | comment |
Sea of Sand: The film emphasizes the sea of sand aspect of the Sahara. And Agadez is established as being the French Foreign Legion's most remote fort in the Sahara, with nothing but hundreds of kilometres of featureless sand in every direction. | |

Leave Behind a Pistol | |
| Adventure in Sahara / int_def127cc | comment |
Leave Behind a Pistol: When Jim turns turns Savatt and the few men remaining loyal to him loose in the Arab-haunted desert with only a fraction of the water and food needed to get back to civilization, he gives each of them a revolver containing one bullet, so they can shoot themselves when the hunger and thirst becomes too much for them. One of the other mutineers comments that this clever, because they cannot be held responsible for the men's deaths if they killed themselves. | |

Desert Bandits | |
| Adventure in Sahara / int_e53426b9 | comment |
Desert Bandits: The remote desert outpost of Agadez is under constant threat from Arab raiders. One of Lt. Dumond's legitimate complaints against Captain Savatt is that when Savattt takes most of the company for an 80 mile forced march through the desert for no reason except to punish them, he leaves the fort undermanned and vulnerable to attack. | |

Determinator: Following the mutiny, the legionnaires turn Savatt and the few men remaining loyal to him loose in the Arab-haunted desert with only a fraction of the water and food needed to get back to civilization.
