Magnumbellum Posted 8 August , 2018 Share Posted 8 August , 2018 Definitely not WW2 RN. I am not even sure that it is British. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seaJane Posted 8 August , 2018 Author Share Posted 8 August , 2018 The friend says the rest of the uniform - that is a detail - looks RN to him. I'll ask if he's got the whole picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARABIS Posted 9 August , 2018 Share Posted 9 August , 2018 The uniform of the Royal Navy was copied by a lot of countries. Portugal and Greece are two examples & both wore inverted chevrons on the upper arm as in the photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
