Usage:

Wings of all sizes and varieties, wings from nearly every unit of Uncle Sam's naval forces, wings with insignia and wings without-forming the background of almost every scene, they add the only element of color to an insipid "Wings of the Navy," currently at the Metropolitan. Built around a trite story of two brothers in a naval flying school, the picture contains little acting, a dull script, and slowly paced direction. Olivia DeHavilland, apex of the now-winged eternal triangle, has nothing to do except be ornamental; John Payne, who wins the girl from George Brent and sells...
