INFORMATION:

Command and Senior Pilot wings were adopted in 1941. Strict new rules for a military pilot required 12 years and 2000 flying hours, which restricted the amount of pilots who would rate the new badges. Command and Senior pilot wings issued to flyers in World War II would have likely earned their pilot wings in the 1920’s-1930’s. Pilots trained during World War II wouldn’t have qualified for Senior wings until after the war ended, and they wouldn’t have been eligible for Command Pilot wings until the Korean War.
