navy blues
Dark maritime shades
Navy blues is a melancholy or depressed state associated with naval service—the loneliness of long deployments, separation from family, or the monotony of life at sea.
The phrase plays on the double meaning of blues (sadness and the dark blue color of naval uniforms): He came home from his tour with a bad case of the navy blues.
