A lot of GI's didn't wear DI's.

Mr. Iwasaki did not remember having any DUI's but I would like to find out which one the 442nd would have worn in WWII. I think it would be a nice addition to his uniform.
Thanks

Re: 442nd Combat Regimental Team Uniform
Well I found a "Go For Broke" DUI hidden in my collection. I was able to show the completed uniform to Mr. Iwasaki last weekend. I had my display at the last showing of the Traveling Vietnam Wall before being retired to a Army base back East. This was the first time I had actually met him. He had a big smile when he saw his uniform with all of his medals on it. 93 Years old and still going strong. It was a great honor to meet one of the brave soldiers of the 442nd Regimental Combat team.
