I don't recall off hand (been several yrs) but is the Air force the same in ratings as the Army?

Until late 1947 it was known as the USAAC - US Army Air Corps.
When it then became a separate branch, the USAF - US Air Force.
This kind of insignia did not see widespread useage until sometime in the 50's,
however, this would be considered a fairly common and "modern" patch.....
