Date on reverse

Does the date 1813 have something to do with the "motto".

This date was in the Napoleonic war e.g.

August 23: Battle of Grossbeeren - Prussians under Von Bulow repulse French

October 16: Battle of Leipzig (Napoleon vs Prussia, Austria and Russia).


What 1813 has to do with 1941 though is not clear. Perhaps both as dates of bloody invasions/battles?
