I can’t find info about this patch.   First image is one that is ostensibly from WWII, and the other is admittedly post.  My ‘net searches bring up the silver wings.  Anyone know anything?  Thank you!

I am not aware of any wartime made bullion WASP wing of any kind. I would inherently distrust any example unless it was ironclad biographical. My opinion.

The ones that were made for other branches—were those military issue?  What were they evenfoor?

US WWII bullion wings were not official issue from the government but were private purchase from tailors, in the US and abroad, as private purchase.
