    US Air Force Master Air Crew Member wing. Post WW2. These are much lower grade metal than Sterling silver.

    Cheers, Ade.

    These are as Ade says - 1/20th silver plated over base metal,
    usually bronze. The above wings are most likely from
    the 1980's, 'S 21' being the maker code.......
    Regards,
