    Wondering if anyone knows where this pin originates or what war it is from. Was in my dad's things. Cactus, cannons and a fleur de lis?

      It is a distinctive unit insignia (DUI) for the 112th Field Artillery Regiment. The Regiment was a NJ National Guard unit and still has active units.

      These are often called unit crests by soldiers.

      A photo of the back of yours will help to date the era of use.

      An online search for "112th Field Artillery Regiment" will give you significant additional information.
