I have a nice little woven badge with my name on it. A relic of my RAF training days, still use it and it is a ice breaker, when you pop up somewhere new. I always wear white leather gloves, fireproof socks and cotton clothing, again a relic from the RAF. My flying suit alas no longer fits and I cannot find a RAF cold weather jacket large enough, I would wear them if I could.Reason being my CO once gave me an enormous telling off, when I wore no gloves, no socks on a sortie and asked me what I was going to do if her Majesty's aircraft caught fire! I don't care if I do look OTT, safety once drilled into you is never forgotten.
