WW2 689th Field Artillery Battalion DUI Question

I don't collect DUI's and I am having trouble finding anything online.

Did the 689th ever create a DUI? Was it only on paper or did it actually get made.

The unit was around for such a short time there just is not a lot out there about them in WW2.

I'm hoping one of you with DUI reference material can chime in.

I have a yard long of one of the batteries but the DUI's they are wearing are too small to make out.

 

Thanks

Seen this post you made back in 2016 showing the "Support" Battery (Its correctly Service Battery). member 1SG_1st_Cav gave a thumb nail sketch of unit.

From what I gleaned so far, the 689th FA Bn was a XX Corps Artillery unit its whole time in the ETO. As far as a DI? We see something being worn correct?  Do you know where the photo was taken?
