Gloves White

Why do Navy personnel who work inside closed control rooms wear white balaclavas and gloves?

We have all seen pictures of lots of Navy personnel sitting at radar or sonar screens wearing long white gloves and white balaclavas over their heads. Why do they do this? Are they in case of fire? Thanks for your help.

Most of the pictures of those you see in this attires are most likely taken while they are doing General Quarters, meaning that they wear this if they were in practice for getting attacked or firedrills.
In reality most of them didn’t wear this because this material will cause static electricity that can harm computer peripherals. If you see them wearing these they are most likely preparing for something major.
