The buckle is pretty cool, The uniform just might be cooler - but a very long shot at being cooler.

"New York Yankee star Joe DiMaggio and comedian Red Skelton, both serving with the Army, were temporarily assigned to the Camp. DiMaggio autographed baseballs for wounded soldiers and gave hitting and fielding lessons, while Skelton made unannounced visits to the hospital for his version of "laugh therapy." "

The camp? Camp Kilmer.
