With/Without Hallmark

Folks,

I haven't given this much thought until I read a recent Army reg that states that all DUIs will be stamped with a manufacturer's hallmark and read "Made in the USA".

I have "several" DUIs, mostly old ones, that are not hallmarked. Does anyone know when this rule became hard and fast and what does it mean that a DUI does not have a hallmark?

 

Thanks, y'all

I do not know when this became a rule but it must have been after the occupation period because you see a lot of locally made DUI's that are unmarked. My guess is that it would likely correspond with the Army's requirement that all uniforms be made in the US, otherwise it would be odd to require "made in the USA" be on an item that did not necessarily have to be made in the United States.
