1st Battalion, 41st Infantry. M113. Cold War Ready.
The M113 Armored Personnel Carrier was the workhorse of the Cold War Army — the vehicle that carried infantry into position, provided fire support, and kept soldiers protected in the most demanding European terrain. This premium 15oz white ceramic mug honors the Cold War veterans of the 1st Battalion, 41st Infantry who rode and fought from the M113, with the Cold War service ribbon as a proud tribute to years of readiness on NATO's front line.
Mounted Infantry. Always Ready. Cold War Europe.
The 41st Infantry Regiment is a regiment of the United States Army with a lineage stretching back through multiple conflicts. During the Cold War, the 1st Battalion served as mechanized infantry, mounted in M113 APCs and trained to fight in the European theater against Warsaw Pact forces. These soldiers knew their vehicles, knew their sectors, and knew that if the order came, they would be among the first to move. The Cold War service ribbon on this mug represents every field exercise, every alert, and every day of that commitment.
