stratasfan Posted October 19, 2017 Share #1 Posted October 19, 2017 To stumble on two, this is too fun! Just had to look this fellow up as well. This is a really pretty wing, I think. Beautifully feathered. More delicate looking than a lot I've seen photos of. Here is his PA Vet compensation form (when you look at the engraving on the wing, the number matches. Don't know if you can see it in the small photo, but you can when you blow the original up). https://www.ebay.com/itm/WWII-rare-named-sterling-pilot-wings-pin-A-E-Co-US-Army-Air-Corps-/161725613177?hash=item25a7990479:g:tTAAAOSwstxVWVmH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratasfan Posted October 19, 2017 Author Share #2 Posted October 19, 2017 Here is the back: He died 22 April 2008, in PA. This wing looks more like it was actually scratched, rather than engraved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
