DUI is a Distinguished Unit Insignia and was worn on the collar of the uniform and/or the overseas cap. The DUI was a small pin worn to identify the basic unit of the soldier. This was usually a unit within the organization of an Infantry Division or other division. Most DUI's were made of brass with an enamel coating. There were some made locally in Europe and some were simple painted pins. They usually were in the shape of a shield and had a motto under it. The design of the DUI had to be approved by the Army's heraldry department and at the peak of WW2, there were so many units forming that they stopped approving DUI's. The soldier wore a cloth patch on the Left shoulder that identified his division. Later in WW2, the Army began to wear the DUI on the epaulet. After the war, this became the standard position to wear the DUI.
