The other cool story, all of the mugs on the ceiling were recreated from existing or inactive squadrons, to include logos and call signs. I had been looking the whole time to see if I could find a mug with my callsign and I did on the last day. I asked the prop guy if I could have it and he gave it to me. I’m now a proud owner of a VFC-13 beer mug from the Hard Deck bar
Ribbons fiasco? I’m assuming you mean how a LT has multiple comms and nams, etc? Looking at some of the ribbon racks, it almost felt like I was in the Air Force in how many awards everyone had!

Didn’t notice, don’t care. Whoever went into that level of detail is way too nit picky.Referring to this
‘Top Gun’ sequel isn't even out yet and we already know they f--ked up the uniforms
In some stills from the latest trailer, two characters from the upcoming film display some fascinating inconsistencies on their ribbon racks
That's awesome! I was placed to Tom's left in a scene that made the final cut, but they cropped me out of it. I will forever be disappointed in myself because I have no doubt as to why... I couldn't stop myself from looking directly at the cameras!I was an extra too and they put out a call to the local San Diego area for anyone who was able to show up in a flight suit. It was mostly pilots but a few guys brought non-mil friends and they wore an extra flight suit. Spouses and girlfriends came too, those were all the civilians in the bar.
It was a good deal but long 14+ hour days. They did feed us really well, gave us haircuts everyday, and I did end up making about $1,500 bucks for about a week of being an extra. There were a ton of shots they took in the bar that they didn’t use in the film. The plus side, I’m standing right behind Tom in one scene so I can claim actually being in the movie ?
Funny story, when they rang the bell for Tom to buy a round, they actually had a pitcher full of beer tokens with ‘Hard Deck’ written on it and either Jennifer Connolly or the bartender would walk around passing them out as part of the scene. The pitcher was full at the start of the week but almost empty by the end. The director asked for everyone to put the tokens back but strangely no one had taken one, or two, as souvenirs ?♂️

I hated the stupid and unlikely patches on the flight jackets in TG 1.
That's pretty neat. Makes me wonder if any of my old squadron mugs were recreated for the movie. If it's my call sign, I should get right of first refusal!...The other cool story, all of the mugs on the ceiling were recreated from existing or inactive squadrons, to include logos and call signs.

Because he was…inverted.

Isn't that called "being a shoe DH?"
