Because we have many performances lined up so far, please bring at least two sets of shirts and trousers with you. We always want to keep a professional and consistent appearance when we perform. So no overgarments (such as jackets or sweaters) are to be worn during the performances. Friendly reminder: If you wear a T-shirt underneath your polo, make sure it does not show (a V-neck). Officers do not dress with their underwear showing!
OUR VENDOR FOR OUR SHIRTS WILL BE THE NAVAL AVIATION MUSEUM SHIP’S STORE for a consistent and professional appearance. They sell our polo shirt with insignia*. Order ASAP. If they’re out of stock in your color or size, there may be a 3-week delay.
* Typically, pilot or NFO wings. Call 800-247-6289, If you have different wings, you will need to pin your ones at home onto a plain shirt. Here is a website to get a plain shirt. https://www.bigtopshirtshop.com/products/port-authority-mens-dry-zone-moisture-wicking-short-sleeve-polo-shirt-k572-navy-blue?variant=32262557696067
- Naval Aviation Museum Store: SKU 1973-1 NFO wings: SKU 2015-1: Here are the links
- Sizes tend to run slightly larger, i.e., an XL from the Museum will be a little larger than an XL you buy at national retail stores like Kohl’s But unless you are still running marathons, a Medium will be too small!
