The US military uses vehicles of all shapes and sizes to move people, transport equipment, and locate and fight enemy forces. From mountain to desert to jungle, these jeeps, tanks, and trucks are built to travel over all kinds of landscapes. But the military did not always rely on vehicles. For centuries, armies used horses, mules, oxen, and wagons to transport troops and equipment. That began to mid-1800s, however, as steam engines came to use.
