Yes. When the Germans were pushed back into Tunisia, which is less of a desert than Libya, he might have been sent to Stalingrad. A good water supply would be valuable in urban fighting, where you have a lot of troops close together, and the city water system is likely to be damaged. He'd be pulled out once Stalingrad was surrounded by the Soviets, because he's just useful.

If he's on the front lines, under Godlike, he'd be as much a counter to Allied Talents as a flood/hypothermia attacker. He might well be fighting at Monte Cassino simply because he was there to assist with the water supply.
