Bloody Bucket= for the 28th Infantry Division-- shoulder patch is a red keystone. Pennsylvania National Guard, I almost ended up in this division as a ROTC cadet. They're famous for getting just about wiped out twice in 3 months in 1944.

I think this derives from fougasse, an old term from early-modern siege warfare.
