I am retired and plan on wearing my blues for formal events. What, if any, DUI do I wear on the shoulder epulets?

There is a retired badge as posted below, however, in regards to the DUI, I have seen retirees in uniforms at events wearing no DUI, and some wearing the DUI of the last unit they were in (or so I was told).
Regardless, none of them were questioned on it, and I am not going to question a retired Soldier anyway unless I think there is some sort of stolen valor situation happening.

I believe for a formal event, like Balls and what not I have been told to take them off. Ill look into 670-1 and see what I can dig up.
****EDITED*****
So with a bit of researching and asking questions myself the DUI is for your current Unit. therefore it is safe to say that you shouldn't be wearing DUIs on your ASUs because you are retired.

SGT Epifanio Becerra Jr.
My son, one of his Drill SGT's, and me. You can barely see the Red, White and Blue Retired left shoulder patch and no unit insignia' on my beret and shoulders. I did get a couple of looks form one or two other Senior NCO's, but my son's Senior Drill SGT did compliment me on my uniform and wished the Army would go back to the Greens. All in all, no one told me I was wrong.
