The good old days when kids get wings from pilots, fire hats from
firemen and badges from policemen. *I jnow the firemen still give out
fire hats at open houses, but the cops are no longer someone that

Are you talking about the "Leg Spreaders" they used to hand out?

I still have a set in my box of old airplane memorabilia )

Don't quite follow you with the "Leg Spreaders", but if you are
refering to the bush jumpers wings, I've seen them. lol I meant the
plastic captain's wings that they gave out. :-)

Thinking back, I remember we kids would run up to police cars when
they showed up in our 'hood'. We would bug them to turn on the sirens
and lights and they would hand out plastic badges. Now kids look the
other way when they see cops.

Shame really.
