Air Force Cloth Parachute and Rigger Badges What Era?

[ehrentitle]

I recently purchased this lot of cloth badges as part of my effort to find variations on Parachute Rigger badges. I assume they are Air Force because of the Blue background. Would anyone know what uniform and what time frame they would have been worn? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I believe...

 

The Third badge is USAF Enlisted Aircrew.

One on the bottom is USAF Security Police Occupational Badge.

Both worn on the "ODs."

Bluehawk or Dutchinfidel can tell you the time frame. Been a while since they have had the blue and white ones.

the RIGGER patch was worn by the army and air force.

the blue cloth patches are USAF occupational badges and wings from the 1970's

 

1 - Rigger patch

2 - Basic Parachutist Occupational Badge

3 - Basic Enlisted Airman Wings

4 - Basic Security Police Occupational Badge

 

The blue badges were worn on the od green and blue service uniforms

Top wing is an Army Rigger wing.

2nd Wing is a USAF Parachutist Wing worn until the Air Force went subdued in the 80's.

 

I think that the only USAF guys that wear the rigger wing have been to the Army Rigger school.

Thank you all for your comments. They have given me a sense for the time frame the Rigger Badge was produced, around the 1970s. It a slight variation of the Army Parachute Rigger Badge that was authorized for wear by local commanders until 1986 when the official badge was authorized by the Army.
