Didn't realize your wing collection was this extensive. Nice assortment. Have to appreciate nice pairs of Amico rigger wings, as I'm sure you know they were often wore against regulations by Paramarines who found them more appealing than the Army's 'lead sleds'

HI Brig,
yes I think the AMICO made wings are a bit special as they were the company that designed the wings in 1942. I know that if I was a Paramarine back then I wouldn't like to wear the army jump wings.
What surprised me was that this design didn't become the official Navy jump wing until July 1963!
