WW2 Canadian RCN Navy Officer’s Service Dress Jacket Named

This is a World War II-era Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) officer’s service dress jacket. The jacket is tailored from dark navy-blue wool and features standard design elements consistent with RCN regulation uniforms of the period. It includes a four-button front closure, two chest pockets, and two lower pockets with flaps. Rank stripes are present on the cuffs, and the jacket retains original brass RCN buttons. The interior bears a label or inscription indicating the original officer’s name, allowing for further research or verification. Such jackets were typically worn by commissioned officers in the RCN for non-combat duties, formal activities, and daily service requirements during the Second World War. This item reflects the design and construction standards set by Canadian military authorities during the 1939–1945 period and provides insight into the uniform regulations and presentation of naval personnel in the Canadian armed forces during WWII.
