Question
I am a former Army Aviator.  I have flown for just over 8 years for the Army, and I just recently transfered to the Air National Guard.  Can I wear my Army Wings on my Air Force Uniforms.  Can I wear my Airborne or Air Assault Wings?

I am a Logistics Readiness Officer in the Air National Guard.

Answer
Hi Philip,

See AFI 36-2903, Table 5-2 (Page 138). (see: http://usmilitary.about.com/od/afreg/p/afi362903.htm)

The aeronatical badges are optional. The Air Assault badge can only be worn when permanently assigned to duties with an Army Air Assault unit.

Hope this helps!
