We looked at this before?

The men with caps are artillerymen without doubt, the others likely to be.  The white uniforms are either cooks or the canvas uniform issued for fatigues around camp.

Not sure I agree with this being WW2, looks earlier, WW1

It is with great difficulty I share with you that in the early hours of 07 August 2021, Maximilian passed away unexpectedly but peacefully.

With deep sadness,

Are you looking for info about him (if any) in which case his name and details  would help or for the others?

hi
If you have no info on him, then how do you know that he is your grandfather?
You have the marriage certificate to your grandmother?     
Who is she?

I see no service or pension record (ie the ones which identify a man ) for him.
 Many Henry Gray's in branches of the Royal Artillery but these have no personal identifying info.
Was he married during the war and if so does the marriage cert have any details of service?
