Wings for the Army.
Officers and soldiers in the British Army who have qualified as glider pilots or air observation post pilots are now to be issued with wings. They will be worn on the left breast and will consist of pale blue wings with Royal crest in the centre on a black background. The wings, known as the “Army Flying Badge,” can still be worn after the soldiers have ceased to be pilots. The badge does not entitle the wearer to any extra pay.
