Manchurian Naval Uniforms

#1

(I hope I am doing this right, lmao)

So I was interested in finding out what the Uniforms of Manchurian Sailors Looked like before and during WW2, as I can't find any pictures of them, other than the military full dress used by an Admiral while escorting Emperor Pu-Yi. Even that picture was too blurry for me to discern any features, especially the cover insignia. Anyone with information or (better) pictures for me to look at, please do post them here, because I am quite curious as to what they look like.

Thanks in advance c:

First, Manchukuo river fleet was navy. But, it was changed to army later.

Ah, thank you! You are a great help!

I noticed on the Naval Picture that at the far right, someone is in a US Navy Style Uniform. Do you know why that is, or if it was the Manchurian Officer Uniform back then?

Once Again, Thank you c:

I don't know. There is few sources about Manchukuo Navy. So, the details are unknown.
