sigsaye Posted June 27, 2010 Share #2 Posted June 27, 2010 More pictures-Navy Whites Jeff R. Jeff, those are perfectly correct whites for a WW2 era Seaman. A wash with a bit of BIz or other additive (avoid bleach), on a gentle cycle, hang them up to air dry. Turn them inside out and then press them flat. If you would like step by step instructions with photos, let me know and I will send them to you. Nice set. Most likely late war/imediate post was (Pre '49) due to the location of the stencile Steve Hesson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
