Title: sailors during 'at rest'
Post by: cheng on March 27, 2012, 06:31:37

and my final use for the guitarman's torso;

a sailor at work during 'rest' from fighting :lol:
.....does anyone know if sailors have uniformed sleeveless shirts underneath their smart white uniforms and are they allowed to work without their uniforms?

We do wear the short sleeve shirt under the white tunic (its not sleeveles  ;)). However, depending on the heat conditions in summer time, the uniform dress code can be varied as following:

tropical day service uniform

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/sailor%20uniform/ndio08.jpg)
tropical evening service uniform

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/sailor%20uniform/ndio09.jpg)
extreme heat service uniform

All three of them are wore in non-essential and non-key service operation positions. For a key position service, such as guard or patrol duty we wear:

and here is the formal uniform

There is also a blue uniform that is wore on office and electronic equipment operations positions, or just for a dirty job...:

Winter

Summer

Btw, we only wear the whites in summer time... we wear the blue uniform in the winter.

Navy dress code is a proud tradition, but its also a big headache  8} :lol:
Hope the above gives you some further inspiration for your customs, cheng :)

The pictures I am showing you here are Hellenic (Greek) Navy sailor uniforms. However, this is also the dresscode etiquette for all Navies. It was established by the Royal Navy, taken up by the US Navy and followed by every other Navy in the world. There are small differences in each country's uniform, but they are minor ones, narrowing it to decorations and insignia mosty.
