Affixing patches to brown leather flight jacket

[xj220]

I have gold wings, name first and last and then United States Navy below it. Don't put anything on the jacket you don't want there permanently since changing patches or resewing anything with cause more damage than it's worth.

Wings and name only.

In the real world, no one's ever said crap to me about my jacket or what's on it, be it layered squadron patches or the "non-reg" flag on the sleeve. Wear what you like on your jacket (within reason), after all, it's your jacket.

Cool, I will order name only then. Rank seems lame anyway......

You aren't required to have your rank on your nametag on the leather or your flight suit as an officer.

unless you are in the Marine Corps.

Yeah, but that wouldn't be covered in the Navy uniform regs.

someone's got it right ....

Or ... Just get a nylon/nomex for your patches and keep the leather relatively 'pristine' ... At least nothing that will need to be updated.

Or ... Get two leathers ...

Or ... Get multiple nylon/nomex's ...

Or ...

Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner!

I got wings, name, and U.S. Navy. I've always thought that looked the best.

Wings and name. Got the TG patch last summer, and still debating on whether or not to put it on the jacket. I've kept mine "virgin" and no one's said a thing about it. We'll see how long that lasts.
