I would like to know where to place air force patches on my MA-1 flight jacket to make it look authentic?

Call or visit the nearest USAF Recruiting Office for help.  I'm sure they like us Army types will be more than happy to assist. Just remember, you are a civilian, never try to pass yourself off as someone else.  I caution you only because we are having trouble now with people who are doing that.  It's against the law to do that.  Admiring the jacket and wanting to be accurate however, is great!!  I wish you the best of luck.  LTC M, USA, RET

Take a photo of the emblem to any emroidery shop along with a ball cap and they can handle it. You can also try vendors in the common area of the PX at any installation - many have old hats, patches and pins for sale, but this is going to be a hunt for you. On a side note - someone is selling an 11th Airborne Division flag on Yahoo Auctions for like 8 bucks (I have linked that site below). Another place to look is at Gun Shows - there is always several tables set up with old military memorabilia. And as a last resource, have you tried the 11th Airborne Division Association? I'm not sure you could get any of them to part with their stuff - but I bet they could point you in the right direction (I have linked their official web site below too). Good Luck!

If you are talking about "chin strap," the only covers I've seen with them it attches easily.  It rests above the brim and attaches to the side with two "screws" (with eagles on them) that fit into 2 metal cylinderical stubs on the side.  If you're enlisted their should be a stud on the chin strap (on the adjuster) and that goes to the left side (if you're wearing it).  That is for Navy...I'm pretty sure it's the same for USMC not sure about Army.  \nIf you're talking about an elastic band that fits under the service crest, than you have to reach inside your cover, loosen the metal support and put the band on like that.  Then tighten your cover and make sure it's crisp and flat.

Check with your local AAFES store.  Auto manufacturers used to give some pretty good deals to returning troops through the post exchange. Don't know if they still do, but it's a place to start.
