At the next stop, I called for MX to bring some duct tape to the cockpit. I worked a 4" piece up my pant leg from the inside to patch the rip. Lasted the rest of the trip!
Never underestimate the power of Duct Tape!

Brilliant!!
I utilized the safety pin underneath to secure my epaulet this last time. Worked pretty good. I told my wife for our 5th anniversary this last week her gift was to learn how to sew buttons.
Or maybe I didn't.
