How to get a users OU in AD?

Currently I use this code to display a users real name on a report when
they print it.

Private DomainUser As String =
System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurre nt.Name.Replace("\",
"/")
Private ADEntry As New
System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry("WinNT://" & DomainUser)
Private FullName As String = ADEntry.Properties("FullName").Value

Now what I need to do is get the user's Organizations Unit they belong
too.

Our users are organized based on thier location like "STC_Houston" or
"STC_Dallas" or "STC_LasVegas"

Anyone know how I can return this OU (Organizational Unit)?

I've been searching google for an hour and can't seem to find anything.

Thanks,
Izzy
