Fantastic, good to see these come up again.  Thank you, Eric!

For the 3" wings, the Pilot and Aircrew versions tend to pop up the most frequently, followed by the Bombardier, Aerial Gunner and Navigator.  The Service Pilot and Liaison Pilot wings also pop up pretty routinely.  The Observer wings are tough to find, and I have yet to see a "normal" two-piece Glider Pilot come available.   In general the 2" and 1.5" wings pop up about as frequently as the corresponding 3" wings, with the exceptions of the three letter wings which I have yet to find any examples of yet.   Note there are also 3" Flight Engineer and Aerial Gunner wings made from different shieldless base wings, but I believe those are all from a different manufacturer (possibly LeVelle).

All you needed to get a crusher was $$$   Any officer in the Army no matter what branch was entitled to wear one.   Most of the officers who got one were AAF.

Very entertaining read and so very rare to find!   Kurt

Still looks okay to me 

He has an actual store in the Milwaukee area.

It was needed a number of Mission to wear a crusher type?

Thank you for your help. I base my research on the ASMIC MP catalogue.

The sales cards are great documentation to prove the manufacturer was Dondero, not Dennison.  

THANK YOU MUCH ! I'll give it a shot & see what happens ?        Best,   Dom
