Re: The White Hat, Again
Hello Mr. Kent good to hear from you on any subject. I agree with you I was active for 4 years and never heard a white hat called a dixie cup or blues called cracker jack. We had dress blues and undress blues the difference was undress jumpers did not have the white piping on collar and cuffs. They came out with short sleved shirts just before I got out. Said we had to buy them so I did'nt get any as I only had a few months to go. From what I have heard soon all services will wear the same uniforms . As for rates like signalman ,radioman ect. I think most of them have gone the way of the stoker and water tender. Subs were calle boars when I was in also.
