A nice mid war period and un-issued standard British parachute qualification wing

This is a good exa,ple example of a standard British made mid war period parachute qualification wing. The parachute qualification wing was introduced in early 1941 for everyone who had passed the Parachute Training school located at Ringway near Manchester Airport. These wings came in different shapes and sizes. The parachute qualification wing was issued after the soldier had qualified for them after 8 jumps. 2 from a balloon and 6 from a aircraft.
Except from a big moth nip on the left wing this wing is in a nicely un-issued condition. There for this wing is priced accordingly.
