    An Army Standard 50,000-pound-capable Rough Terrain Container Handler (RTCH) belonging to the Fort McCoy Logistic Readiness Center Transportation Division is shown June 11, 2021, at the division’s operations building at Fort McCoy, Wis.

    A Rough Terrain Container Handler is a militarized model of a commercial design. It is a successor to the Caterpillar RTCH, which entered service with the U.S. military in 1981.

    This machine operates on rough terrain, beaches, and other unimproved surfaces. (U.S. Army Photo by Scott T. Sturkol, Public Affairs Office, Fort McCoy, Wis.)

    Fort McCoy’s motto is to be the “Total Force Training Center.”

    Located in the heart of the upper Midwest, Fort McCoy is the only U.S. Army installation in Wisconsin.

    The installation has provided support and facilities for the field and classroom training of more than 100,000 military personnel from all services nearly every year since 1984.
