If you fly in the cockpit of an S-3, you wear a Nomex flightsuit (and the other gear); it's required.

Damn, if I could catch a ride in an S-3, I would. Closest I've ever gotten is when my then brother-in-law (at the time a SAC navigator) bribed an Air Force instructor pilot with a bottle of cheer to give me (and my ex-, both of us pilots) an hour's time in a KC-135 simulator.
