The Korean War Blue Water Navy:

“Master-Chief” M-CPO, Typical Service Uniform (Long Sleeve):

This could be a Master Chief from the 30s to the present, I like that about the Navy, in that way they’re practical. Eventually, name tags were introduced.

Where exactly to place the uniform, your guess is as good as mine, the uniforms in the Nave like all the services call for high standards, but mine may not be up to par, even though some are reproductions in the collection, just trying to show what I think they wore, on some vessels and some deployments, getting you uniform starched and pressed is not an option, I want to respect the people and the time.

Caddet? Ensign, Propulsion, Korea, Khaki-Dress:

Note: The Shoulder Boards, indicate his rank And have a Propeller on them, I now realize this emblem is used with Navy Officer Cadets as well, but usually has an anchor, not a propellor. The uniform may be incorrect and a mix of insignia, will follow up on this one day when I get back to edit this and may have to adjust it and re-shoot the uniform. He has decorations from the Pacific Theater of WWII and Service, and the Philippines Victory Ribbon, during the Korean War as well as Post-WWII occupational duty (Likely Japan).

USN Lieutenant Korea, Dress Blue:

This is another WWII veteran and Korean War Veteran.

Lieutenant Commander, Dress Blue, Korean War:
