If it was a 'sweeper and if anything like other "small ships" the
uniform regulations were often honoured more in the breach than the
observance.
Last pic looks like winter (could be summer in the UK ;-)) as one has on
a duffle coat and a wolly hat. You say based on Sheerness/Sheppy so
assume that did not do Arctic convoy work and were probably too small
anyway.
