Jeeper704 Posted October 26, 2007 Share #26 Posted October 26, 2007 Thanks for the information. Maybe it is a good thing I posted them here as it will warn other collectors about these things. As I stated earlier, I do not have these DUIs in my collection. I posted them as reference only. Maybe it would be nice to post the "real" ones next to them? At least some of us are trying to make a decent reference topic about it and we sure can use some help. Erwin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, you can find at least some of what you are looking for there. Also, you may want to consider joining the American Society of Military Insignia Collectors (ASMIC). They have a website at www.ASMIC.org. Membership is open worldwide and they publish many catalogs and periodicals concerning insignia. It also provides information about others who share your same collecting interests. Laury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laury Allison Posted November 25, 2007 Share #39 Posted November 25, 2007 27th Infantry (I believe that this is 2nd Battalion and 1st Battalion faces the other way IIRC) These are worn in pairs so that the wolfhound is facing forward.

DM1975 Posted November 25, 2007 Share #40 Posted November 25, 2007 These are worn in pairs so that the wolfhound is facing forward. Laury Yeah, my bad on that. Had someone in 1-27 tell me that they wore the wolfhound facing to the left on their berets for some reason but I cant find any info on that to support it. The one I posted is off of a WWII uniform I have in my collection and is a pinback. All face the same direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ww2vault Posted December 14, 2007 Share #41 Posted December 14, 2007 Can some one identify this DUI? If you do know what it is just mail me and I will edit my post with the correct information on what it is, thanks! - Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pac_bob Posted December 28, 2007 Share #45 Posted December 28, 2007 Hi guys, Can anyone tell me if there is a website where i can find out what DUIs look like for certain units? Im looking for the DUIs for the 91st Infantry Division but at the moment i dont know what any of them look like. Any help much appreciated, Jon. Hi, Jon, The following website has the 1945 order of battle for the 91st Inf Div in Italy, but no DIs: http://www.milhist.net/ordbat/91infdivus.html Shelby Stanton's Order of Battle WWII has line drawings of the three infantry regiments (361, 362, 363), and you may be able to get the FA, Engr, Ord, etc. unit DIs by googling the individual units listed in the above website. Otherwise, contact me after the New Year at [email protected], and I will send you some admittedly poor (150 dpi) scans of the division's WW2 insignia. I'm afraid I can't help you on some of the postwar DIs since I don't collect that era. Bob Capistrano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tredhed2 Posted January 1, 2008 Share #46 Posted January 1, 2008 Due to the shortage of metals in WW II, some DIs were embroidered, as were some in the Korean War.
