Default British Army Para Wings WW2 or Later ?

As the title states, could some kind soul verify whether these British army Para wings are WW2 vintage or later ?

Thanks in advance

Thanks all, not my area of expertise so always better to seek opinions from those with more knowledge.

They are not rare, so I am sure you will find one in due course.
