This is the description by Library and Archives Canada.

Six members of the Special Operations Executive (British Army), returning from duty in Burma and Southeast Asia aboard H.M.T. QUEEN ELIZABETH, New York, New York, United States, 20 February 1946.

(L-R): Lieutenant S.R. Elliott, Captain A.G. Erickson, Lieutenant J.F. Sayer, Sergeant G.W. Carroll (M.B.E.), Lieutenant E.J. Ripley, Warrant Officer First Class (WO1) S.A. Cato.
Sgt.G.W.Carroll might be Canadian as he is wearing canadian airborne wings.......Also,Lt.Elliott might be wearing a Canada title....
Can't get a larger version of this photograph.
BTW,none of these officers and NCOs are in the CD ROM Courage And Service, Second World War Awards to Canadians (with Hugh Halliday). Service Publications,2004.
