I don't think it's no accident that I haven't lost Dad's Command Pilot wings but I did (regrettably) somehow manage to lose his medals back when I was a young kid. The silver wings have tarnished a bit over the years but that's OK since you can clearly see the imprint where he used his thumb to pin the wings onto his dress blues. Sorry, Mike, but, unless things have changed drastically, the wing size remains the same with the exception that Senior Pilot has the star affixed to the shield and Command Pilot adds the wreath around the star. Otherwise, the wings are the same size. I was simply comparing the size of USAF Command Pilot wings to the size of wings of other wings worn by various military personnel (paratrooper wings, for example). Sure. ![]() |
