I think there is a place for old uniforms in a proper re-enactment scenario at a show to give people an idea of what things looked like.
Having said that there is nothing more ridiculous than a fat, balding, often bearded, 60 year old wearing a young man's uniform. Even if he did actually wear a similar uniform in his youth, as mentioned above "When you are out, you are out."
Our vehicles can be brought back to their former glory but our bodys never can.
