Default Badges ID please.

I have been trying to identify the badge worn by Capt. Erickson,Lt. Sayer and Lt. Ripley former members of SOE in Burma, according to the caption. Lt Elliott is wearing what I would say is a tiger on a two-coloured patch (Indian Command of some kind). Note that Sgt. Carroll is the only one wearing Canadian wings and an American wing on his (maroon?) beret. Finally,Lt.Sayer and WO1 Cato (cap badge?) are wearing the Supreme Allied Command South East Asia patch on their right sleeve.
