Have you ever seen anyone wearing a Glider badge?

Not lately but I have seems few WWII era guys with them

Yeah. I met a WWII vet who went into Normandy in a glider. he had the badge. I think he was 82nd AB

In almost thirty years of military service I have only seen one soldier with the Glider Badge. In 1981 I served in a Texas National Guard unit (3d Sqdn, 163d Cav) at Arlington, Texas. We had a very old SFC who wore the Glider Badge from back in the 1950s. His last name was Campbell and he was also a Tarrant County Deputy Sheriff.

while working at Cp Roberts in the summer of '89 - an old guardsman on the last year before his retirement - his 1st year in the Army was the last year of the gliders.

Never!

It became obsolete in 1961.

My grandfather. WWII, Korea, Vietnam. Retired in 72 as CW4. Wings earned in '46. Stayed with the Army when given the choice when the Air Corps broke off into the USAF. When he passed, his awards were separated among the grandchildren. Me being the eldest I took the wings as my first choice.

That badge was discontinue in 1961. I don't believe there are any other SM's still in service who would have been awarded it.

Only at the VFW.

Knew it existed - have never met anyone who actually earned it
