Hallo - please assist - Was there ever a DUI approved or made to be used by the 95 th Chemical Company ? I saw there was indeed a 95 Chemical Mortar Battalion. Even this Battalion - was there a DUI made for this unit ?
Was any shoulder patches approved or made ?
Thank you
Joe
As a Company sized unit, it will be a Non Color Bearing Unit, meaning it did not have a Color, an example of an Infantry Color, Chemical Battalions wound have one like this, only in a different background Branch Color, Colbat Blue, they would have a Guidon though, one for the 50th Chemical Company like this one, here instead of the 50 seen here it will just say 95. Because of all this this they would not have a DUI of their own. A company sized unit at the end of WWII, could havea very unofficial DUI made up for it, with the apporval the company commander, but these are very very very very rare that these were made up, most simply did not wear a DUI then, some individuals might wear what are called Patch Type Crests, a metal pin made in the shoulder patch and worn in the same place on the uniform the DUI would of been worn, but even here, it was somewhat rare, see HERE
Now the 95th Chem Co was in WWII and Korea, what period are we looking at? a patch worn wise.
