Interesting to see the officers with the wartime 'austerity' stripes, in other words, to save on gold-lace, the stripes didn't go all round the cuff, just a half ring.

Same in the Canadian Navy & Reserves, 1/2 sleeve rings commenced here in '44 & apparently continued into the post war period, at least till '46-'47.
