I made my peace with being a dork a long time ago but on a scale from 1 to 10, how much of a dork would I be if I were buy this patch on ebay and sew it on one of my jackets? It is not authentic, just kind of cool.

Years ago I used to wear a tan flight suit covered in patches from collar to cuff when I did airshows, airline patches, aircraft patches, all sorts of aviation stuff, it's still in a box in one of the closets but I no longer can squeeze the much more of me into where I used to fit loosely. :lol:
Buy the patch

I have a fatigue shirt with Air Race and air show patches from 1976-2000, wore it that whole time. Can't see the shirt anymore through the patches. My wife claims she will divorce me if I ever wear it again in her presence...
Hangs in a closet until I get the bug to cut them off and put them in a frame.

I collect B-17 patches, especially those related to Warbird B-17s, past and present. I've gathered quite a few. I haven't sewn them onto any articles of clothing yet, but I thought about covering the back of my flight suit with 'em.
