David, were you in the Battalion when it was reflagged from 2-54 Infantry to 1-52 Infantry? If so, do you have any recollection of the name of the Battalion Commander at the time of reflagging? I am working on the history of the Battalion and need information about the year/time of formation of the 1-52. Please let me know if you can assist.
