Nel senso di convoglio militare (https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tradotta_militare)
I think this is a military train (or military railway, as wikipedia states), but it becomes unwieldy when repeated for every mention (this is for a novel), so I guess I'm wondering if there is a more precise term, possibly a one-word synonym. Is it odd of me to think there should be?
Thanks in advance!
