I am a prior service graduate from the US Navy Diving School, can I use my diver classification badge on the ODU in the Coast Guard Auxiliary?

If you were in the Coast Guard when you attended the school and were awarded the badge then yes you may wear a sew-on equivilant of the device on your ODU 's. If you were in another service when you earned the device then it falls under the rules for prior service devices. In the latest ALAUX subject Auxiliary Uniform Matters 007/08 it states "sew-on insignia from prior military service other than the Coast Guard are not authorized to be worn on Auxiliary ODUs".
