| Description: | Dull in imagery and contrast The answer to a military commander's prayer is the 'Rolligon'-a vehicle that can go anyplace a sure-fire burro can, carrying a lot more cargo. The secret-huge, soft, balloon-like tires, shaped like watermelons. MCUS - The Rolligon in the desert. MLS - MCUS - The Rolligon going through swamp land and over rocks. MCUS - Man laying down on the ground and the Rolligon drives over him. MLS - A stuck jeep and the Rolligon comes along with people sitting all over it passing up the stuck jeep. | |
