Description: The battalion was established in November 1947[18] and fought in the War of Independence as part of the Givati Brigade (5th Brigade). When the IDF brigades were numbered during the war, the battalion was given the number 52 because it was the second battalion established in the Givati Brigade, which was given the number 5. The name "Habokaim" was given to the battalion because it participated in breaking the siege of the Negev, imposed by the Egyptian army. In fact, it is the second "Habokaim" battalion, as the 51st Battalion of Givati (which in 1956 moved to the Golani), which fought in the same battles, had previously received the name "Habokaim" (the first "Habokaim" battalion). In 1956, the 52nd Battalion was transferred to the 7th Brigade.
