Invasion Star Earrings – WWII Inspired Jewelry
Carry a powerful piece of World War II history with these Invasion Star Earrings, inspired by the iconic military symbol used by U.S. forces across Europe and the Pacific. First introduced by Army regulation AR-850-5 in 1942, the white five-pointed star became the national symbol for American military vehicles. By 1944, it was the most widely recognized identification mark across all theaters of war.
The “invasion star,” often painted with an interrupted circle, told a deeper story. These broken rings—sometimes called “lazy circles”—appeared because field stencils left gaps at the star’s points, and soldiers often left them unfilled. The result became a distinctive battlefield variation, making it easier to distinguish U.S. vehicles from German markings and identifying which units had been deployed overseas under the Lend-Lease Act.
These earrings celebrate that legacy of courage and ingenuity.
