528th Support Battalion DUI White Glossy Mug – Emblem Design
Start every morning with the motto of the 528th Support Battalion: "We Support To The Utmost." This white glossy ceramic mug carries the battalion's distinctive unit insignia in a dimensional 3D-enhanced printed style, with no additional surrounding text, so the crest itself takes center stage.
528th Support Battalion Heritage
The battalion was constituted in December 1942 as the 528th Quartermaster Service Battalion at Camp McCain, Mississippi. It took part in the World War II assault landings in Sicily and Southern France and earned campaign credit for Rome-Arno, Rhineland, Ardennes-Alsace, and Central Europe. The unit served in Vietnam from 1969 to 1971, and in 1987 it was consolidated and redesignated as the 528th Support Battalion at Fort Bragg, supporting Army Special Operations Forces in operations such as Panama and Desert Shield/Desert Storm. The distinctive unit insignia was approved on 14 January 1988.
