    Canadian Pilot, Airborne and Regimental Insignia - Out of Woodwork - Opinions Please

    Thanks in advance. A while ago, I picked up all of these items from the son of a US Vet. My understanding was the GI traded for them all.

    I am far from an expert on Canadian Militaria from WWII, does all this look OK to you?

    We are moving soon and I decided to sell them. What's a fair collector to collector price to ask on the WAF estand?

    Again, appreciate the input.

                Hi Jeff, nice find! I'll ring in on the items I know....The small RCAF metal wing and the ring are sweetheart pieces. The Gold Thread wing with the white anchor is a Canadian Made Fleet Air Arm Enlisted man's pilot wing for the No. 1 Dress uniform.....very nice indeed!

                  Hi Mike - thanks for the input. I was only familiar with the airborne wings as they are prized my many WAF members and I could find numerous discussions.

                  Your information helps fill in some of the gaps.

                    Interesting XII Manitoba. Looks like a pugaree badge maybe. The Red Cross Society enamel on leaf badge is different from the one I'm familiar with and which is shown in Mazeas's book. The smaller one might be a collar. Let me know if/when you'll be listing these (assuming you are selling them all) as I'd be interested. Thanks.
