Two part question. 1) Can a soldier just pick a DUI from a prior unit and wear it for regimental affiliation? 2) Can an active duty soldier transitioning to the NG keep his/her Regimental Affiliation that they have while on AD when they transition to the NG?

DA PAM 670-1
21–24. Insignia representing regimental affiliation
a. Authorization. AR 670–1 authorizes insignia used to represent regimental affiliation to consist of either the RDI or DUI. A Soldier’s Regimental affiliation using an RDI is based on a Soldier’s branch/corps/special branch as determined by PMOS or specialty. A Soldier’s Regimental affiliation using a DUI is based on a unit in which the Soldier is serving or previously successfully served. Soldiers may wear the RDI for their affiliated regiment or may wear the DUI for a unit in which they are serving or have previously successfully served based off their assignment history as indicated in their personnel record.
