My granddad somewhere in Italy during the war in the early 1940s, singing in a band! If anyone knows where this was taken, that would be nice to know :)

Your Granddad and his band mates appear to have been members of the 263rd Royal Army Service Corps. If you are in the UK, there are likely military records that might give you some idea where he served.

Italy was liberated in May, 1945, so if this photo was taken in Italy it was likely taken after that date.
