It is worn by all personnel in the Battalion, regardless of their assignment or Airborne-related qualifications, on the maroon beret that is been authorized for members of Airborne units since 1981. Both insignias use the same design as those for the 504th Regiment HQ and HQ Company, with the addition of two small notches that signify its numerical designation in the organization.<br>As a general rule, Officers wear their non-subdued insignia of grade centered on the stiffener of the maroon beret (Generals’ stars may extend beyond the edge of the flash) and NCOs and Junior Enlisted wear their Distinctive Unit Insignia (or Regimental Distinctive Insignia if their unit has no DUI) centered on it. Exceptions are detailed in DA PAM 670-1,<br>paragraph 19–21(c)2<br>.<br>Officially known as Airborne background trimming, the oval is reserved for those Battalion personnel who have qualified for an Air Assault or Parachutist badge. The oval is worn beneath the badges, which are placed on the oval with the main portion of the badge—i.e., excluding the star and wreath at the top of the Senior and Master Parachutist badges—centered on it.<br>Counted as a single item when worn together, ovals and badges are worn by both male and female Battalion personnel on Service Uniform coats (AGSU and ASU/ASU Dress) and Service Uniform shirts (except on the Class B AGSU), as well as by females on the blue or green Army Maternity Tunic. Detailed instruction on the wear of Airborne background trimming is found in DA PAM 670-1,<br>paragraph 19–31(b)2<br>.<br>* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *<br>Nicknamed “White Devils” as opposed to the “Red Devils” of the Regiment’s 1st Battalion, the 2nd Battalion, 504th Infantry Team is assigned to 1st Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division and is stationed along with the Regiment’s HHC and 1st Battalion at Fort Bragg, North Carolina.<br>The Battalion traces its history to 24 February 1942 and the constitution of the 504th Infantry; the 2nd Battalion was constituted as the Regiment’s Company B.
