Sirs,
I've come across four DUIs that I can't identify in spite of considerable
effort. Please help.
1) Approximately 1-1/8 inch high, a red rectangular shield with
a hand grenade and a blasting machine upon it. Below is a scroll with
the motto, "Demonstramus".
2) This piece has no motto. It is about an inch square
rectangular shield. It is divided diagonally from upper left to
lower right. The upper area is dark blue with four stars arranged
like the constellation the 'Southern Cross'(like the stars on the
Americal Division patch). The lower area is red with a white
medieval tower with battlements at the top.
3) Approximately one inch high, a shield with a pointed bottom
and three points across the top. Extending 3/4 of the way down the
red shield and centered is a white wedge shape. A green lizard(a
chameleon?) is seen crawling across the shield towards the upper left
corner. No scroll or motto.
4) Barely an inch high and only 3/4 of an inch wide, the shield
is sharply pointed at the bottom, with three points at the top.
Divided diagonally from upper left to lower right, it is blue at the
top and red at the bottom. Superimposed over the shield is a 3/4
inch high evergreen tree. No scroll or motto.
Regretably, I do not have pictures of these pieces. My thanks in advance to anyone who can help. I have the great
honour to remain,
Your Most Humble Obedient Servant,
