M60 Combat Tank - RHIT - Terre Haute, IN - Military Ground Equipment Displays on Waymarking.com

During World War I Rose Poly (prior name for the school) trained students in technical subjects like vehicle maintenance, and created a ROTC Engineer unit. During World War II the ROTC unit was replaced with an Army Specialized Training Unit and students could enter and graduate after every quarter in order to support the war effort. This enrollment schedule continued through the post-war years until 1951. A tank is located behind one of the academic buildings as a reminder of Rose Poly's war contributions. reference While similar to the Patton M48, BruceS pointed out for my waymark downtown that the M48 has five upper wheels on the tread, while a M60 has only three. Corrected both waymarks.

Location restrictions: None - located behind academic buildings off lower parking lot
