I just picked up this group of WWII sweetheart pins. I thought they were pretty interesting, particularly the pilots wings. My quesstion is were sweetheart pins worn only by mothers/wives/civilians, or did servicemen wear them as well? Would these be worn as lapel pins?....tie tacs? Thanks.

Yes women primarily, men did were similar / like pins on suit coats & ties. A good thread to see a wide variety is here:
