Nurse's disposable paper veils (x2) : Royal Australian Naval Nursing Service
Description
Two Royal Australian Naval Nursing Service officer's disposable paper nursing veils to be worn with duty dress. Triangular veil is made from a double layer of heavy paper to give a 'folded' effect to the veil. The inner layer is plain. The outer layer is embossed with a blue naval crown. There are also embossed mock stitching lines around the edge of the veil. Both layers fold together to form a triple layer band to secure the veil to the head.
