Flown gold naval aviator wings carried on Apollo 10 by LMP Gene Cernan for Edgar Mitchell, measuring approximately 2 3/4˝ by 7/8˝, as attested to by an accompanying annotated card: "Navy wings were flown by Gene Cernan on Apollo 10." The wings are marked on the reverse: "1/20 10K GF" and "USMC Ser. 298." Also includes a rare embroidered Apollo 10 'Post-Flight' crew patch, as worn by the crew on their post-flight jump suits at recovery; although examples of this patch design were flown on the mission, the flight status of this example is not known. In fine condition. Mitchell was designated as backup Lunar Module Pilot for Apollo 10. Both Mitchell and Cernan were naval aviators with degrees in aeronautical engineering from the U.S. Naval Postgraduate School.
Accompanied by a letter of authenticity from Karlyn Mitchell, the daughter of Edgar Mitchell.
