Obverse description The enameled field depicts a P-51 Mustang fighter aircraft with distinctive red tail markings in high relief, overlaid on a stylized Iron Cross (German War Merit Cross) in gold enamel, with a Purple Heart medal featuring a profile bust of George Washington at upper left. The legend arcs around the border with the unit number and founding date, flanked by stars, and the number 1578 appears vertically on the left margin.

Reverse description The reverse depicts three World War II-era aircraft in relief — a P-47 Thunderbolt at upper center, a B-24 Liberator bomber at center left, and a P-40 Warhawk at lower center — superimposed over the bold legend '332 FG' in the field. A blank oval cartouche appears at the lower right, likely intended for personalization. Unit designations arc around the border in raised Latin lettering.
