25th Infantry Division — Tropic Lightning | Vietnam Combat Infantry Veteran | DUI & VN Service | 15oz Black Ceramic Mug
Tropic Lightning. Always Ready. Always First.
This premium 15oz black ceramic mug honors the Vietnam Combat Infantry Veterans of the 25th Infantry Division — Tropic Lightning — featuring the Division’s Distinctive Unit Insignia (DUI) and the Vietnam Service ribbon earned in one of America’s most defining conflicts.
The 25th Infantry Division, activated on 1 October 1941 at Schofield Barracks, Hawaii, has one of the most storied combat records in U.S. Army history. In Vietnam, Tropic Lightning soldiers fought across the III Corps Tactical Zone — from the Iron Triangle to the Cambodian border — conducting search and destroy operations, defending firebases, and engaging the enemy in some of the most intense jungle combat of the war. The lightning bolt on the Division’s patch became a symbol of speed, aggression, and fighting spirit that the enemy learned to respect.
For the Combat Infantrymen who served with the 25th Infantry Division in Vietnam, this mug is a tribute to the missions endured, the ground held, and the brothers who never came home.
