Interesting, this is the authorized DI for the 63rd Infantry, approved in 1951. So we take it this one with the crest and motto scroll is a Korean made type, made and locally approved when the 6th Infantry Division, which the 63rd Infantry was in was on occupation duty in Korea post VJ-Day?

It has the Indian Head above the shield. Wasn't that unit part of the 45th Infantry Division?
