Have you ever seen anyone wearing a Glider badge?

Knew several veterans from the WWII 11th Airborne Division that earned the badge when I was stationed at Campbell.

No i haven't

No

I saw a WWII vet wearing one. But other than that no. It is for all practical purposes an obsolete award.

No

The first only only time I seen someone with a glider badge was the first platoon Sgt that I had This was back in the beginning of 2005 he retired shortly after I came into the unit

The fellow who lived across the street from my parents had one. He was a glider pilot in WW2. Col.Harry R. Russell. Yes, I knew what it was. He wore both glider wings and command pilot's wings. He served 32 years in the Army and Air Force. The reason I recognized the insignia was because I am not only an Air Force BRAT, but also retired Army NCO. My Dad served 23 years as a Dental Officer in the Army and Air Force. My Mother was one of the original WACs.

I joined the AirForce in 1981 and in all that time I saw 1 and he had been in the Army 20 years when I Asked him about it.

Nevet

Yes at some of my American Legion meetings. Just one man left.
