The DG is an easy one to spot as the ring key tops are hollow/countersunk/dished instead of radiused like all other Buffets. They also have a voicing groove half way along the barrel bores (if they still have the original barrels that is).

The problem with a lot of military band instruments is parts can often get mixed up and you can end up with a mismatch of joints, barrels and bells or if a bell or barrel was damaged and a replacement one was bought but of a different model (likewise with Selmer saxes having the wrong crooks - I've seen a MkVI tenor with an SBA crook and other MkVIs with ill-fitting crooks). Anything is possible.
