You're starting to pick up a nice assortment of wings. Back to your original questions, the glider badge is undoubtedly WWII manufacture, but you will have a very hard time ever attributing these wings to any particular maker. I would say that finding maker marked glider badges are among the most difficult varieties to find.

 

Your Aerial Gunner wing is what we refer to as a "graduation" wing as this pattern was commonly handed out to those who graduated from gunnery school.

 

Keep working on your collection!

Jay,

Your jump wing is most likely one that was produced during WWII, but this type of wing could have been issued out clear into the late 1960's. There is no doubt that it is an original, and fills a hole in your collection, so good going!
