Have you ever seen anyone wearing a Glider badge?

I was in 1-325AIR in the 82nd 2BCT. I got out last year after serving last 3 years in the Army with them. They just completed a deployment to Iraq a few months ago. 325 Airborne Infantry Regiment was originally 325 Glider Infantry Regiment. They were one of the original glider regiments of WWII. At one of 1-325AIR's battalion balls they had one of the guys that served with the unit in WWII. He had some stories. There is even an iconic poster of a soldier from this unit during the battle of the Bulge.

When I was in the Army, I saw quite a few wearing the glider wings. The difference was there were still WW2 veterans still on active duty in those days.

Charles DeGlopper from Grand Island, NY. His sister in law was my fourth grade teacher. Everyone in our class held his Congressional Medal of Honor. I’ll remember that day as long as I live.

I recently came across a WWII Vet with Glider Wings on his hat. I thanked him for his service, and commented about his wings. He said I was one of very few who knew what Glider Wings even were.

Never glider, but there was a Navy pilot with lighter than air wings when I was in flight school

Not since the second world war that i know of has anyone worn a Glider Badge

Yes

Yes my grandfather

Glider badge would probably be a World War Two badger for glider pilots

Yes, my father, Lt. Col. Judson Spence, Sr., wore one. He was a master parachutist and a "glider rider".
