Odd bug, flies, four legs?

This bug looked like a mercedes emblem or peace sign, in a way, at first. Seems only to have four legs. Disguised as tree parts, but flies. Anyone know what it is? Holly saw it first. It was at our house in Albuquerque.

Vine Identification, please

The vine can be freestanding or it can twine. The flowers are pinky purple. (Ignore ducks and morning glories in the background.) Please identify:

World War II insignia

These were in a little box marked "Probably Kirby's," in handwriting I don't recognize. It was passed on by one of my aunts.

I only recognize tech corporal and the sergeant's stripes. Can anyone name the others? I'm not positive they're all my dad's, but I know he worked with trucks and jeeps, and was a sergeant when he left the service.



Thanks for any help!

Probably opened yesterday; shrunk back down; Current; Still hasn't sprung up from the ground:

Flower ID, please

Can anyone identify this? It's in South Carolina, at Katherine's house. :-)
