Default Another Mystery Photograph -Any Help Appreciated

Have had this postcard for many years and have never been able to identify the Unit that these Men are serving with.

I's not the clearest image but hopefully someone may be able to help me please.

Many thanks in advance, Simon.

Chap in the middle looks like an Air Ministry Constabulary cap badge. White disc behind.

I would say they are officer cadets, the badges have crowns, middle one looks like wings.

Many thanks for your replies everyone, having looked again at the shape of the cap badge, the Artists Rifles looks a good bet. Will attempt to get a better scan and will add it when I can.

Thanks again Simon.

The badge on the right looks like an RAF Buildings & Works badge.
