BERWICK -- The Stuart tank that returned to Columbia County earlier this year now has its own custom made trailer.

Local manufacturing corporation Cheetah Chassis built the trailer and presented it to the Stuart Tank Memorial Association in Berwick Wednesday.

The Stuie tank is one of thousands manufactured in Berwick back in the 1940s and used during World War II in Europe.

Workers at Cheetah Chassis tell Newswatch 16 they knew how hard the association worked to get the Stuie tank back to Berwick and they wanted to help.

"We also knew they were running low on funds and they needed a way to get it around town and to other towns to get it in parades and to raise more money so they could get it totally refurbished, so we thought this would be a good opportunity to help the committee out to finish the project," Cheetah Chassis president Garry Hartman.

The 47 employees who donated their time to build the trailer all signed their name to it.
