Geocache Description:


The T34 is a Russian tank used during World War 2.

This tank shows the way to the School of Armour, Armour Museum in Tempe where you can attempt Pectore Sicut Ferro (GCV4CR).

It is right next to one of the major entrance roads into Bloemfontein and is a very quick and easy road side cache.

The next bit of information was provided by ZS4BS and published with his consent:

"This T34 tank is spoils of war - coming to South Africa from Angola following the border war and various operations that took place there.
The Armour Museum does have a T34 in a running condition that is normally driven during open days and at the Barbarossa Day activities.
The T34 has 5 sets of road wheels or bogey wheels per side, in front is an idler wheel where the track tension is adjusted and at the back is the drive wheel or sprocket where the drive power from the transmission connects to the tracks. Thus 7 sets of wheels per side - the idler and sprockets are NOT bogey wheels."
