I probably would have paid more attention to Popeye as kid if he had looked like this. Now I need to go eat some spinach and work on my forearms.

His arms have a certain lobster-claw thing going on.
I was going to post a video from the movie, but alas Paramount had YouTube take those clips down.
Ah.. Truly a Higgs Bosun’s Mate…
No endorsement or whatnot inferred, but I gotta let you know this is making its way around the Navy and we LOVE IT. Gonna start putting the term “Hold fast” back in my lexicon. Even though the coasties claim him, yours is obviously wearing Navy dress blue pants, bell bottoms and all. So I’m claiming this one. OUTSTANDING work! Thanks for this.

He was in the Coast Guard. Watch the clip.
Also during this time period the Coast Guard and the Navy had the uniform with only a few minor differences.
This awesome. Can you give us some more background on the tattoos?
boooosssss!
where can i find a high res version of this?
From one sailor man BM3 to another this is AWESOME!!!
Both the Navy and the Coast Guard can lay claim to Popeye, but so too may the Merchant Marine. He switched from Merchant Marine to Coast Guard and then to Navy during World War II.
“That Guy” got it right!
