Thank you for answering about the wing. What type is it?

As for the Pegasus badge....can't tell you as it is not my area of interest....stay tuned, I'm sure a few fellow members will be able to answer you.All I know is that concerning the para wings,there are about half a dozen wartime patterns.....
