Non-sterling pinback pilot wing by 'Amcraft'. This pattern is known
as the 'snowflake back' from the 1930's, but it's possible that
pre-war types were worn in WWII.........

Non-sterling pinback Senior Pilot wing by N.S. Meyer. This pattern is also known
as 'Pelican bill' or 'Pelican mouth', because the shoulders of these wings
look like a pelican's bill.........
