Hi, I am ex-British Navy and have just made a friend who was also in your navy so we have been comparing notes. What an interesting video you have done. Perhaps I should do the same with my own British sailor's uniform!! Or better still get you to model a British sailors uniform!! I have been collecting uniforms for some years after swapping bits with various sailors in other Navies whilst on my worldwide travels. I then started to collect more items to make them complete so have managed to have full uniforms from Russia, Germany, France, Australian, Chinese, Vietnamese, and many others. With my British and also American I have managed to get complete uniforms from the 1940s, 1960s, 1990s and today.
Thank you! I've come to appreciate the navy in recent years, and I always like a good navy uniform, even if most of the time the various nations have very similar uniforms. I wouldn't mind a set of British ratings uniform at some point, but right now I'm restricting myself to Norwegian stuff. In fact I have now sold the uniform shown in this video, and I'm building up a WW2 kit instead (Not so easy).
Looking sharp my friend.
Great videos mate
Amazing!
