Upon completion of AIT, do 15Ws receive the Aviator Badge or the Aviation Crewmember Badge? Also, does Aviation not have it’s own Regimental Corps Crest? I am undergoing reclass soon and would like to have a base knowledge, can anyone help?

You will be a part of the Aviation branch. And you will be awarded Aviation Crewmember Wings...assuming the paperwork is put in.

You will get the basic crewmember badge. And avaition does not have a regimental crest, so you are able to wear the dui of whatever aviation unit is on your srb history, or if you already have one.

You'll receive the Basic Aviation Badge. For those at Huachuca; wouldn't he be able to wear the 13th aviation regimental crest upon graduation and reassignment?
