I saw a couple guys in my jump school class wearing jump boots (as opposed to issue boots), and when I went through OCS, a lot of the candidates had a gold bar attached to the webbing of their highly polished helmet liner. Don't think anyone will give you too much grief it the wings are out of sight (under pocket flap, etc).

*update*
Rangers and Paratroopers,
The wings were blessed by five successful jumps, and returned to the Sergeant for him to pass on to the next man walking the path. They gave me my own wings, see.
Thank you for the advice.
