In the 1936 short "In the Army Now." Popeye and his nemesis Bluto set out to enlist in the Army but get into a fistfight in the recruiter's office. Popeye (as usual) wins the fight and struts out of the office before remembering to sign his papers. He never goes back, and the world was spared "Popeye the Army Man."
In 1937 when he appeared in the two-reel feature "Popeye the Sailor Meets Ali Baba's Forty Thieves," Popeye was serving in the Coast Guard and deployed to foil the evil plans of terrorist "Abu Hassan" (aka Bluto) in the Middle East.
In 1941 and in his 100th short, Popeye finally enlisted in the Navy in "The Mighty Navy" and put on the white crackerjack uniform for the first time. He stayed in uniform until 1978 when he went back to his original outfit but kept the Navy's "Dixie Cup" hat instead of the yachting cap that he wore in the early comics.

I knew he was in the Navy. I knew about the change in attire.

I never put it together that WWII is when he changed his outfit. That's pretty neat.

Popeye the Sailor Man was originally Popeye the Coast Guardsman. This may seem like blasphemy to some, but Popeye started his professional career as a civilian mariner and then Coast Guardsman.

really he was always a merchant sailor in the 30s stuff.

by the time popeye is joining the navy (and wearing the white suit) the show has jumped the shark and is just used as propaganda.
