"jump wings"

Picked these wings up today. The guy I got them from had long white hair and a bad attitude! I asked what kind of wings they were and he said "jump wings" I asked Vietnamese? He said "I brought them back from Viet Nam. Do you want them or not?" Price was right so I bought them and left.

 

I found this thread on similar ones and I guess some US guys did wear them.

You have a French paratrooper wing but this may not be an official piece in that they are of a lower quality with the safety pin fastener. I read once somewhere where someone thought these were a giveaway item during some sort of youth get together at the French Paratrooper School.
