A cap or shirt from a retired ship? If anybody asks, just praise the ship in question and tell them it's a piece of history. I still have a Desert Storm sweatshirt. If anybody asks if I was there, I just say "No. It was a gift from a friend who was."
Honoring a piece of history might bring on an argument about the history itself, but wearing a cap from an historic ship is cool. Very cool. I've always wanted a cap or shirt from Constitution.
