U.S. ARMY 210TH FIELD ARTILLERY BRIGADE UNIT CREST (DUI)

Also known as a unit crest or DUI, a Distinctive Unit Insignia is worn by all Soldiers (except General Officers) in units that have been authorized to be issued the device. It is worn centered on the shoulder loops of the Army Green Service Uniform (AGSU) and the blue Army Service Uniform (ASU, Enlisted only) with the base of the insignia toward the outside shoulder seam. Current regulations do not permit the DUI to be worn on the Dress variations of either uniform, however.

Enlisted personnel wear the insignia centered on a shoulder loop by placing it an equal distance from the outside shoulder seam to the outside edge of the shoulder-loop button. Officers (except Generals) wearing grade insignia on the shoulder loops center the DUI by placing it an equal distance between the inside edge of the grade insignia and the outside edge of the button.

More guidance on wear of the DUI is found in DA Pamphlet 670-1,
Section 21-22, "Distinctive unit insignia" and 21–3(d) and (e), "Beret" and "Garrison Cap," respectively.

Originally approved on 23 May 1969 while the unit was still designated as a Field Artillery Group, the 210th Field Artillery Brigade Distinctive Unit Insignia features the unit motto “Controlling The Best” in gold (yellow) on the perimeter of a red annulet encompassing a black disc. A vertically oriented gold cannon within the annulet divides the black disc into two sections representing the Brigade’s World War II campaigns (Rhineland and Central Europe). The circular border symbolizes the continual training and mobility the unit offers.

In November 2006, a ten-year period of inactivation drew to a close for the Brigade when it was redesignated as a Fires Brigade and activated for service in South Korea, becoming once again a Field Artillery Brigade when the Army brought back the Field Artillery designation.  As of Autumn 2023, the Brigade is attached to the 2nd Infantry Division and is headquartered at Camp Casey, Korea.
