The Fisher Space Pen (Apollo XI commemorative) was my favorite on active duty (Army). I have been retired 13 years and it is still my daily carry for Boy Scout outings and camp-outs. That will be a valued gift.

I use my Parker 51 and my pilot VP, black or blue ink only, although I use blue-black and some green-black. There aren't any requirements as to what the pen needs to look like but I know the next pen I want is a "flighter" style pen. Would love a 51 flighter but they are very expensive.
