US Navy Uniform Patterns

[1917Corpsman]

I have to agree with Dave on your reproductions. The photos provided do not show much in the way of detail, but what there is shows the uniforms to be incorrect. Neither has a breast pocket. Can not see if there are skirt pockets nor what the blue coat is lined with. Additionally, the white hat seems to have been made that way, which is incorrect. It should be a removable white cover.

 

Personally, I prefer to spend a bit more for a correctly made item.

On the lighthouse keeper uniform I posted he can add the correct left breast pocket. You are correct about the white hat that it is made that way. I'm sure I could find a local hatmaker that can reproduce the canvas cover for under $50.
