1/2 liter Cold War Stein, B Co., 2nd Bn., 52nd Infantry, with unit crest, named to Captain Nelson F. Perez.
Unit Crest: "Approved on 5 December 1928, the 52nd Infantry Regiment Distinctive Unit Insignia, or unit crest, pays
tribute to the units that were pivotal in the organization’s creation and first combat action. The red lozenge and
Maltese Cross on the canton are emblems of the 11th Infantry, the organization from which personnel were taken
to organize this regiment. A gold bend with silver borders is taken from the arms of Alsace; it is charged with
the shoulder sleeve insignia of the 6th Division to denote that the regiment was assigned to that division during
World War I. FORTIS ET CERTUS, the regimental motto, is Latin for "Brave And True." (Source: www.uniforms-4U.com)"
