The “Ike jacket” was made a reality by Alex Nguyen, Lead Tailor, at the Logistics Readiness Center, Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall in Ft. Fort Meyer, VA Virginia. Nguyen was asked by Gen. Mark Milley, former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, to create a real-life version based on historical data and photos from former President Dwight D. Eisenhower. The jacket is now available for purchase for uniformed members that are eligible to wear it.
