Wally,

Yes, I would tend to agree, this is a Type 1 wing you own, well trimmed down.

I wondered if it was trimmed for wear or trimmed after it was removed??

Hello GTB,

Thank you for posting this wing for all to see. It appears to be post-war to me. I’m all ears if someone has a different opinion.

Hello Silverwash,

Any chance we can get a close up picture of your wing on your BD?.... might you have any other 1st Can Para uniforms with wings?...
