The officer's uniform was custom made by Western Costume Company for Mr. Aykroyd's use in the production and has the original Derossi and Son tailor's label sewn inside listing the actor's name. Insignia has been added for display purposes only.
Mr. Aykroyd wears this uniform throughout the film. "Sgt. Bilko," starring Steve Martin, Dan Aykroyd, Phil Hartman, and Chris Rock, follows the story of Sgt. Bilko (Martin) who is in charge of the Motor Pool at an Army base. He's a good-natured con man, providing gambling facilities for the soldiers on base. When an old enemy from his past shows up to inspect his records and steal away his fianceé, Rita (Glenne Headly), Sgt. Bilko has to put his skills to creative use.
