ORIGINAL 1920’S UNITED STATES NAVAL AVIATOR WINGS BADGE INSIGNIA, 2-3/4 INCH SIZE BADGE, PIN-BACK W/ OPEN CATCH. “MEYER METAL & SHIELD”. A naval aviator is a commissioned officer or warrant officer qualified as a crewed aircraft pilot in the United States Navy or United States Marine Corps. United States Coast Guard crewed aircraft pilots are officially designated as “Coast Guard aviators”, although they complete the same undergraduate flight training as Navy and Marine Corps crewed aircraft pilots, and are awarded the same aviation breast insignia. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do for you!
