Super nice finds. Those wings are US Air Force Pilot wings. There are 3 different levels of wings. Newest pilot gets wings with no star. I believe as they gain experience, flight time and qualifications they receive the star above the wings. Fully qualified pilots get a wreath around the star.
Thanks for the pix,
