Would anyone get a "Free Trader Beowolf" reference on a flight jacket?

[Trebor]

I'm toying with the idea of having a custom "Free Trader Beowulf" flight crew shoulder patch made up and then making a "flight jacket" similar to the Alien "Nostromo" jackets. I'd add some sort of pilot/crew wings (not the ones from Alien) and probably some other details like rank or nametags, etc. On the back I'd paint "Beowulf" (like how "Nostromo" is painted on the Alien jackets) and possibly do "nose art" of the art from the patch on the back of the jacket

Would anyone even get the reference now though? Or is it too obscure these days?

(I'm not saying what it's from here just to see who gets it and who doesn't)

Thoughts?

I say do it, because it makes you happy.

I don't

I'd get it.

You could even add a 'Captain Alexander Lascelles Jamison' crew patch.

It really doesn't matter how 'current' it is. If you want it and it makes you happy - do it!

That's brilliant!

I had to look the reference up - Traveler RPG?

I say go for it.

Several years ago I contemplated doing a SNARK jacket. (original name of the Nostromo)

I would say it is worth doing to see who gets it, as they will certainly let you know they get it when they see it, an even those who don't get it will still think it's a cool jacket!
