Wings of Gold
Naval aviators refer to their flight wings in this way. Pensacola is the location of Naval aviator flight training. Last week's attack by a Saudi national at Pensacola killed three naval aviators in training. Today, all three were posthumously awarded their wings out of respect for "exceptional heroism and bravery in the face of evil."

I'd heard a naval aviator say they wouldn't do it when someone else suggested it. I guess he was wrong. Pretty sure they still won't award Purple Hearts. I've come to think that's the correct decision, though I used to think otherwise.
