WW2 US USAAF Officers Collar Insignia Single

The WW2 US USAAF Officers Collar Insignia Single is an original military artifact used by officers of the United States Army Air Forces during the Second World War. This metal insignia was worn on the collar of the uniform to designate the wearer’s affiliation with the USAAF, the aerial warfare service component of the United States Army from 1941 to 1947. The design typically features the iconic propeller and wings motif, which symbolizes aviation service. Measuring approximately one inch in width, it is constructed from brass or a similar metal and often finished with gilt or a subdued patina, depending on production variations. The insignia would be attached to the uniform using clutch back fasteners or pins. Items such as this played a functional role in denoting rank and branch within the broader U.S. Army structure. The single insignia offered here is suited for collectors, historians, or those seeking authentic period uniform components.
