Birchwood Casey Plum Brown solution gives a good approximation of the original finish.

Thank you, Lars, for your comments and compliments!   You're right. A friend made the circle/star stencils for me, and I airbrushed the markings.   Joe

Hello,   I dig back this cool topic with my painted ACH found some days ago:  

Thanks. I’ll go back probably next week. I’ll definitely ask to see anything thing that came in new. That pin could be easily missed as being non military by the dealer. He really doesn’t know anything about military. I also got some WW1 OS chevrons that he thought were corporal stripes. They could have belonged to the owner of this medal. No one could say for certain. I’ll have to see how may chevrons he was entitled to. 

Yes, post WWII wing.  1950's to present. Here is a photo of a WWII era CAP pilot wing.

Hi Folks, I'm curious what the hive thinks of this button. I feel like it "could" be authentic, but part of me thinks it looks too good. Thanks in advance, T  

Pins are welcome here also.  Nice club pin.  I've seen several other club pins like this one in the past.   Thank you.

Found some jump wings which are said to be authentic from ww2. Any help would be appreciated.
