Thank you for the info! I’m happy they are the 101st attributed wings.

> I'm grossly violating the intent of this thread. However, in my own defense, this narrative (found online) did give rise to a number of images which our Coastie bretheren and sisteren might bring to mind as came to mine: -------- By: LCDR Lou Stanton (USCG Ret)   "Reflecting to the summer of 1973 while I was stationed at CG Station Cape Cod Canal in Sandwich, MA: Our Station located on the Cape Cod Canal had an area of responsibility including about half of Cape Cod Bay, the northern third of Buzzards Bay and the 7 mile Cape Cod Canal, a major shipping lane connecting Boston and New York.  Three tall bridges spanned the shipping canal: the Sagamore and Bourne highway bridges and a railroad bridge.   The highway bridges were a magnet for people to commit suicide being some 135 feet high above the canal at their midpoint.  Most of the suicides occurred late at night.  Usually, a police car would find an abandoned vehicle at midspan and contact the Coast Guard reporting a likely suicide. The Coast Guard response to these reports included launching a small boat, usually the 40 foot UTB, and a helo from nearby Air Station Cape Cod.  The Sar Mission Controller at Group Woods Hole would have us conduct lengthy trackline searches up and down the canal in the vicinity of the bridge while the helo with their ‘night sun’ spotlight would make several passes overhead.  After about 20 minutes of searching with no results the helo would be released to return to base while we would continue searching for typically a couple of hours often until daybreak.  In all the calls I participated in we never found a body, and I am almost certain none of the other crews from our Station did either.  The only time we found a body was when the jumper was found on the shoreline landing on the riprap along the waterway.  That was the responsibility of the local police, not us. Like most of the crew, I stood a 4 or 8 hour radio watch in the Station’s radio room while on duty.  I had a lot of idle time on my hands and decided to vent some frustration stemming from conducting lengthy searches for bridge jumpers.  I created a contest: The Cape Cod Canal Bridge Jumper Jamboree featuring two teams; The Sagamore Flyers and the Bourne Leapers.  Points for each team were awarded as follows: 1 point for attempted jump, 2 points for a successful jump into the canal, but only ½ point for jumping and landing on the riprap. For several months the scoreboard was posted on full display on a large bulletin board behind the radio watch.  One day a reporter from The Cape Cod Times newspaper visited the Station to do a story on the CG and noticed the scoreboard.  After inquiring, we explained the origin stressing the tragedy associated with the suicides and the effect it had on our crew.  A story about the Station and the scoreboard was featured in the next edition of the weekly paper and emphasized the sadness associated with the suicides as well as how the Coast Guard crew endured useless searches for victims.  It was written in a very positive tone, praising our efforts but emphasizing the futility of suicide.     The CG command at Woods Hole after reading the article was not amused and directed the immediate removal of the scoreboard.  The memory, nonetheless, will live on in all who served there during that time."    

Very nice   Keith

Great find!  Congratulations and thanks for posting!

As Tonomachi stated these Wings were made by an as yet unknown maker. They have also been attributed as the first Glider Assault Wings issued to the 101st.   Here is a side-by-side comparison of the tilted and horizontal leading edge of the Glider Wing. Yours seems to be the horizontal version that has a more refined look IMHO.     

The HBT weave does give off parachute harness vibes, but definitely not parachute webbing.

For thee first time in my life we've seen the Howitzer Motor Carriage M8 was nicknamed the General Scott or Scott, like the Sherman, Stuart, etc, never heard it called by this, like  even the vintage Tamiya kit doesn't have Scott on the box art for the kit, it does for the M4 and M3 Tanks.   The November 1944 Research and Development Service Order No. 13-44 The Asterisk next to some indicates nickname in full use by the troops.     

Great vet Art case with provenance!  Thanks for posting!
