Post; I need Help with US Military Mottos


I have just came in possession with a number of US Military Pins (DUI’s) and I believe the are from the US Army. I have been searching on the net trying to find out what units they are and from what state. Most of the Pins are from the 1950's

Any help would be great

Thanks

Here's some more:

#3. I think this one should be "Securitas Copiarum"
Means: "Guardians of the Troops"
709th MP Batallion
http://709thmpassn.org/Whats%20an%20..._battalion.htm
and
http://www.military-quotes.com/forum...ic.php?t=16292

#7: Also a typo.
Should be "A Verbis Ad Verbera" translation: "From words to blows"
But I can't find the unit..

The motto of the 103d Engineer Battalion, Pennsylvania Army National Guard is PARATUS (Ready).

Go here: 103d and 107th Engineer Battalions

Post; PREMONITE


'PREMONITE' is the motto for the 1st Recon Troop (Mechanized Cavalry) for the 1st Division. My Dad was in this unit at the end of WWII. I have one of the DUI's, and would love to find a match to it if you have interest in selling it.
