German wings. I took part in an Operation Market Garden commemoration operation and earned German Wings there when I was 50 in 2010. I never got them, but I qualified for them.

Semi-unrelated, because I never jumped because I am chicken-shit in the face of heights, but does anyone else think that foreign nations have some really cool wings/badges? I have yet to see a pair of foreign jump wings or marksmanship badge that wasn't cooler looking than ours.

I liked the Honduran wings because they are identical to Navy/USMC wings and I always got confused looks from Marines when I was in Recruiting.
