59th ADA (Air Defense Artillery) Regiment Unit Crest (Defendimus)

The 59th ADA (Air Defense Artillery) proudly displays these unique unit insignia (DUI), featuring the motto "Defendimus," which translates to "We Defend." The bear on the shield is derived from the arms of the Coast Defenses of New York. This DUI was redesignated for the 59th Air Defense Artillery Regiment in 1971. Soldiers wear these distinctive unit crests on both the Army Class A Service Green and Army Service Uniform (ASU).
