2012 RARE 42nd PHILIPPINES ARMED FORCES CHIEF OF STAFF GENERAL EDUARDO OBAN JR COIN. Served as Chief of Staff for Philippine Armed Forces from March-December 2011. Eduardo San Lorenzo Oban Jr (born 13 December 1955) is a graduate of the Philippine Military Academy Class of 1979 and the former Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces of the Philippines. His term as chief of staff began on March 6, 2011 when he succeeded General Ricardo David and ended when he was succeeded by General Jessie Dellosa. On February 22, 2014, Oban was appointed by President Aquino to head the Visiting Forces Agreement Commission. Oban played a major role in the negotiation with Magdalo rebels involved in the Oakwood mutiny in 2003. He also served as the Deputy Chief of Staff for Plans, J5, and is viewed by many as the perfect back-stop for Former Philippine Air Force (PAF) Chief Lt. General Oscar Rabena, a member of PMA Class 1978 who was also the top AFP planner before he was named to lead the 17,000-strong major service command. Condition: Used, and in nice shape.

Air Force Navigator wings in wood frame with dark blue velvet background. Probably made in the Philippines. Wings are approximately 8″ wide and 24″ long. Wood frame is approximately 13¼” wide and 27½” long. Hand-carved wings are in very good to excellent used condition with minor scratches, primarily on the shield (please see photos). The wood frame is in very good used condition with signs of wear, including scratches, scrapes, nicks, indentations, dried glue in seams on back, and writing on back (please see photos). It’s possible some of the scratches, scrapes, nicks, and indentations are a condition or characteristic of the wood used for the frame. Frame corners are tight and fit together well. Velvet background appears to be in excellent used condition, although the cloth is a bit loose in the upper left corner and there are a few stray threads.
