Thanks Gents,I don't really know,this is the only one I've ever had in hand so I grabbed it, I've been told it was a type of work shirt and I've never seen a photo of it being worn with the white undershirt with the blue stripe, I've also been told they were worn by Petty Officers.If anyone has any ideas please let us know.

Especially like the navy gear! Green pullover isn't a jumper but a work tunic. Jumpers came in white ( for summer) & black for winter. They had detachable collars. There was an extremely rare SNLF model jumper that was in green

Do you have any photos of the green SNLF jumper?

No. I don't own one. Never saw one nor do I know of any in collections in US. I have seen them worn in black & white period photos. Some believe they were originally white jumpers that were dyed.They are the "holy grail" of SNLF tunics including officer's green tunic that took shoulder boards.

This jumper had a depot tag in it originally and you can still see the outline holes and some bits of thread  but was removed and the spot were it was now has an ink depot stamp, I'm assuming it was a reissue.

You have a great collection, the pieces are in excellent condition.  Thanks for posting the photos.  It is very interesting  to see the color variations side by side.
