U.S. ARMY 960TH SUPPORT BATTALION UNIT CREST (DUI)

Often called “unit crest” or a DUI for short, the Distinctive Unit Insignia worn today by the 960th Brigade Support Battalion was originally approved for the 960th Support Battalion with an effective date of 1 September 2008. This image-rich insignia features a shield divided into three distinct sections, each with its own symbolism and meaning. In the chief (upper third) is an image of a vehicle’s wheel surmounted over a crossed lightning flash and open-ended wrench or spanner, each of which points to a specific function of the Support mission.

The lightning bolt or flash suggests the alacrity of the Battalion’s electronic capabilities; the wrench or spanner alludes to maintenance tasks and how proficient the personnel are at keeping vehicles in working condition; and the wheel is a symbol of the transportation responsibility to keep up the movement of men and materiel.

In the middle section (fess) and lower section is a stylized mountain range set against a deep-blue sky and the silhouette of a bronco rider surmounted on a chevron, respectively. The chevron is a symbol of support in general, while the fess suggests military control. SIGNUM STABILIS, the unit motto, is Latin for “Setting The Support Standard.”

Full 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.
