Help needed on an ID: C&C BN 101st Abn Div

[Dakota]

Stopped by an antique mall that's near me and was sorting through some DUIs trying to pick up some airborne ones.

One that I wasn't sure of had the motto "Rendezvous With Destiny", which is the same as the 101st Airborne motto, but the DUI isn't the 101st AB DUI that I've attached to this post.

I should've taken a picture of the DUI but I didn't. If someone posts a picture of the insignia in question I will definitely be able to identify it.

 

Thanks for the help,

D

Hi Dakota,

 

Looking at the ASMIC book of mottoes lists another DUI with that mottoe.

 

It is the following:

Command and Cont BN 101st Abn Div

The shield is divided per fess red and dark blue with a black eagle.

The eagle's head is up and the tip of the tail and edges of wings are

white.

 

Maybe this is the one you have.

Take Care,

Pat

Hi Pat,

 

I searched up the name of the BN and you hit it right on the nose. Attached is the picture I found. Thanks!

Is there any history that goes with this Battalion?
