BLUF:
I was in the 173rd a few years ago and did a foreign jump. I still have all the supporting documents required to get foreign jump wings but don't have the actual orders awarding me foreign jump wings.
Me and a few others kept bugging command and S1 about it and since BN and BDE was rotating command teams it got put on the back burner.
Since then I haven't worn my ASUs so it wasn't a priority considering other factors. Now that I'm in a new unit, I want to make sure I got my T's crossed and I's dotted. I haven't been able to contact my old S1 section but would they be able to generate foreign jump wings if I show them the supporting documents or am I SOL? Thanks in advance.

As long as you have the jump status orders or that 4187 signed by the General, if you were not on jump status, along with the manifest there shouldn’t be a problem getting orders from your current unit. If you were active but now are USAR then your current unit would have to submit the documents for the award. It would go through your current command.

SSG (Join to see) Drive on! Carry on the good fight! Best of luck.
Go slowly, be careful to keep records of how all of those ‘Ts’s’ crossed and ‘I’s’ were dotted!

CSM Charles Hayden thank you CSM. It's crossed my mind lately. The past 3 years in the reserves (maybe just my last unit) showed me the difference in record keeping from USAR and active duty. I actually plan on going through my I love me book this weekend to square away anything I might have missed.
