Navy photo query

[Karolee]

Hi,

Can anyone help with this pic of my Grt Uncle Jack?

He served aboard HMS Ramillies during WW2 (and survived the war)

Although I know it's the navy, did they have different regiments like the army??

thanks

No, Carole, they just went (go!) to ships...

He was a Petty Officer...

No probs !!!

And Carole, don't stereotype yourself! You'll be saying that you can't parallel park a car because you have no spacial awareness next!

Actually I can't!!!

I have my first driving lesson on Tuesday

But I can build flat pack furniture and fit a plug

I'm another clueless 'girl'   I take it it is just the insignia that is red, the rest of the badge navy (or all red)
