Sorry no-one told you, Ryan. For reference the return rollers are the
3 (on the Sherman) rollers each side at the top that stop the track
dragging on the suspension units.

I tried to think of some more obscure tank terms you might not have
come across and thought of :

Glacis plate- the part of the hull protecting the driver and MG-er
(sloping on the Sherman)
Mantlet- the mounting the gun sits in (the bit that moves up and down)

Can anyone else think of any more?
