  1. Caterpillar Tracts, essential to all tanks were actually developed (seeing many good attempts in Britain like David Robert's fall short) by Benjamin Holt of Stockton, CA for steam powered Tractors and Harvesters built to till the soil of the California Delta. Such had many Military, Ag, & Construction applications. I would love to see one of these wonderfully cheeky Infographic's Show Chapters done on Benjamin Holt revolutionizing Agriculture, Construction, & War rather inadvertently with his Stockton, CA Harvesters! British Maj. Gen. Sir Ernest Dunlop Swinton heard of of Ben Holt's Caterpillar's being shown off in Antwerp and later realized such a thing could be applied to Offense as, well as supply transport. Poor Old Stockton does have some important claim to fame after all!
