My Grandparents married in 1942. In the photo, Granddad is wearing a navy uniform-type suit.
I always thought the hats were white on top with dark on the lower sides, where the HMS bit goes. The one in the photo appears to be very dark with a lighter band where the HMS bit is.
Were they like this, or was he wearing a 'fake' one? Unfortunately, the hat is positioned so I can't read what ship he was on. Only the H is showing.
