    The man on the left appears to have a two coloured forage cap, with a lighter narrow band; the other two both have berets and the centre man's beret appears to have a very small cap badge - which could be the Leicestershire Regiment's brass cap badge (See Google).

    As for location I'd suggest Egypt, Palestine or Malta, even Cyprus. The barman's appearance is not specific and perhaps working a bar was not something Egyptians would do? There is a tall beer pump dispenser in the background. Can the lettering on the two bottles be read on the original?
