Fun fact: I bought that jacket for $50 on consignment at the Aeromart two years ago at Convention (had the patch sewn on later). It's a pretty trim fit though - I need to start hitting the gym if I want to keep wearing it! For the nameplate, I like the simple WWII style embossed leather strip (name only). I agree with Tony, I personally shy away from anything overtly military-like, since I never served, but I think it's fine if your intent is to honor the vets (there are some STUNNING WWII reproduction A-2s with handpainted noseart out there).
