caption_attribution_description: English: Heavy equipment transporters from Fort Knox's 233rd Transportation Company transported old tanks in an initiative to improve several of the post's ranges last week. The mission also gave the 233rd Trans. Co. Soldiers experience with transporting different types of equipment. This mission also comes as preparation for the movement of Fort Knox's Patton Museum. In the movement of the Patton Museum, the 233rd Trans. Co. would have a key role in the movement of historical and heavy equipment while also receiving key operational training.
