The Army’s Parachutist Badge began with a sketch by CPT William Yarborough of the 501st Parachute Battalion in March 1941. Sent to Washington to secure a badge for the new Paratroopers, Yarborough carried the approval paperwork from office to office himself. The badge was formally approved on March 10, and 350 badges reached the battalion by March 14.
The winged parachute became the basic qualification badge. Senior and Master Parachutist grades followed in 1949, adding a star and a star within a wreath above the original design. This graphic pairs the basic wings with an Airborne tab.
