Outtair Posted November 1, 2021 Share #1 Posted November 1, 2021 Thanks to member Tonomachi, I have identified these wings that I have had stored away for years. Apparently these were awarded to Artillery Officers who cross trained as pilots as Air Observation to better control artillery fire. These were padded but never worn and are probably post WWII but according to Tonomachi this style changed in 1957. His sharp eye and knowledge also identified the word UNIQUE under the flaming ball.
