WWII U.S. Army Air Corps Gold-Filled ID Bracelet with Pilot Wings Emblem

A rare surviving relic from the early days of American air power, this WWII-era ID bracelet was issued to a member of the U.S. Army Air Corps, the predecessor to the modern Air Force. Crafted in gold-filled metal, it features a finely detailed pilot wings emblem on the central plaque, symbolizing the courage and skill of wartime aviators. The reverse is stamped with "1/8 10K GF," denoting its gold-filled construction.

Once a functional form of identification worn both in flight and on the ground, this bracelet now stands as a tangible link to the golden age of military aviation. The slender curb chain, original clasp, and warm patina all speak to decades of history.
