CASUALS OUR HEROES WEAR TO EVENTS

Post by Joe Gopan » Wed Jul 15, 2015 2:55 am

Many could take a lesson from Chuck Yeager, been observing him for decades, his usual dress for airshows and events is Blue Jeans, Button Shirt, Hiking Boots, GI Belt with Brass Buckle displaying the Bell X-1, and a 357th FG Cap..

I dress the same, except I don't have the brass X-1 Belt Buckle. (And I am no hero.)

Don't wear what this guy wore:

Most of the true heroes I have met, and that includes Yeager, don't have to loudly advertise who they are. Humble, nearly all of them, and I truly appreciate their service and sacrifice.
