Tent, Military

Rectangular pavilion for squads or command posts; requires wagon to haul.

A rectangular pavilion of heavy oiled linen laced to a wooden frame, large enough to shelter a squad or a command post. The entrance is a double flap; ventilation ports prevent stagnation. Cavalry companies and siege engineers use them; they roll into bundled packs and require a wagon or pack-mules to haul, but once erected they last through months of campaigning.
