US Paratrooper wings - WW2 vintage?


 Share

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I collect mainly British medals, but I have a soft spot for US medals and Insignia from WW2.

 

I have this set of wings , unfortunately the pin is missing,  back reads 1/20 Silver N.S.Meyer Inc New York, what period would they have been worn?

 

cheers,

 

Rick
