    WWII Caribbean, Central and South American Pilot Badges


    Recommended Posts

    Since there is a such a shortage of material on this subject, I thought I would start a thread dedicated to primarily Spanish-speaking countries in the Caribbean, Central American, South American region, including Mexico for this survey. Most of these started WWII as neutrals and then came into the war late. If they were still dominated by foreign powers they came in when the corresponding country came into the conflict. For a complete list of participants, check out this wikipedia entry here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Participants_in_World_War_II

    There is no order the files I will list. Let's start with Chile, the last country to declare war in 1945 against Japan. Chile still uses this style badge today but this type of manufacture with its unique pin and baked enamel is generally considered from the WWII time frame.

    They are as follows:

    1. Red star: Pilot

    2. Blue star: Pilot

    3. Blue prop/engine: Engineer

    4. Blue diamond: Administration
