Picture was taken around October 1946. I know I have no hope of finding who this sailor is, but I would like to know if he was from the Australian Navy or another country. Are there any Navy enthusists out there who can point me in the right direction of a website with uniforms..Or that I could PM the photo and get an opinion... I have looked at navy websites and ww2 pages...but am having trouble finding pictures
