For the most part civillian officer's wear either coveralls (sometimes called a boiler suit) or regular civilian clothes as long as those clothes don't interfere with their jobs. exception: Cruise shiups and passenger liner Crew will usually wear a uniform derived from a traditional uniform (most often Summer Whites)
Additional Information:
The differences in naval and merchant uniforms lie largely in the details of insignia, hat devices, buttons (on dress uniforms); for example, a US naval officer's insignia of rank (gold stripes on a shoulder board or on the cuff of the coat) will be surmounted by a specialty insignia. US Navy Line Officers have a five pointed star superior to the stripes. US Merchant Marine Deck officers holding positions similar to those of Navy Line Officers will have a fouled anchor superior to the stripes.
US Navy personnel render a "courtesy" salute to US Merchant Marine Officers (of an apparantly superior rank) in uniform.
An interesting tradition related to that fouled anchor on the Merchant Marine officer's shoulder boards and sleeve: one end of the rope fouling the anchor is secured to the anchor and is unseen; the "free" end (called the "bitter end") of the rope is visible at the bottom of the anchor. That bitter end, whether on shoulder boards or embroidered or sewn onto a sleeve, must point aft when worn, as if the fouling rope is trailing after the wearer. The insignia is worn with the bitter end pointing forward only on the uniform of a mariner being buried, whether at sea or ashore (a more familiar - perhaps - parallel is the inverted stirrups of the riderless horse in a formal military funeral procession.)
The civilian equivalent would be more in line with their occupation than their rank. Warrant Officers tend to be technicians/specialists in a certain field.
The Swastika armbands were worn by soldiers of the Third Reich and by members of the Hitler Youth. Both officers and enlisted men wore these armbands, as well as male civilian students.
In the context of interviewing military officers for my writing of magazine articles, I've been told that I may address an officer by first name, but that it's always safest to address an officer by rank and last name, as in "Commander Davis."

maritime academy of nigeria is a merchant navy school. It specializes in training of marine engineers, neutical scientist (ship captains) maritime transport managers, Electrical engineers. though the cadets in the school are trained by Nigerian Naval officers but it's major objective is not to produce military officers. Graduates of this school are Merchant Navy officers and they sail onboard ship like officers. Their dressing is similar to those of naval officers. They are men of high integrity as they earn respect from all aspects of life. Another Advantage is that, they are paid well for their profession.
In the military for example, the Executive officer (XO) is second in command reporting to the Commanding Office. This term is not used in the British Army. Officers are charged with general duties and responsibilities according to their rank. In civilian life the military terminology just translates to the civilian equivalent
If the civilian is not in the officers chain of command the it is not possible to be insubordinate. If the civilian is in the chain of command then the process is exactly the same as insubordination to any other superior.

It means that the senior military officers take their orders from the civilian government, specifically from the President of the United States. All military officers must be "commissioned" by the Congress, and the President selects the senior officers who advise him. The President and the Congress have the authority to promote, demote, or fire any officer for any reason.
Civilian control of the military is a doctrine in militaryand political science that places ultimate responsibility for a country's strategic decision-making in the hands of the civilian political leadership, rather than professional military officers.
