Ah, but those are the Army wings.

As good Marines they should get a few Marine jumps in so they can get their Marine wings.

AIRBORNE - the only way to get to work early in the morning.

The gold ones do look better.

I must say that of all the units training for Airborne; Army, Marine or Seals I think the Marines were the best trained and motivated as a group. The Seals are in a different mindset and need no incentive other than whatever motivates them. I must say though according to my nephew who gave me the rundown on his training a few years ago- Things have drastically changed, the training has been made easier to allow women in the school. In other words P.C. has invaded and taken over serious training in order to accommodate a few Feminists who think a Pair of wings will give them a leg up on the promotion trail! Good for them - Bad For Our Country!
