My great grandpa is 2nd from the right. My Uncle Claude (2nd from the left) was alive until last year and was a witness to the atomic bombing of Hiroshima.
Probably post war as your grandfather (and the man far left) can both be seen wearing a “ruptured duck” honorable discharge lozenge.
Allowed men to continue to wear their uniforms for a time after discharge 1) so they wouldn’t have immediately to obtain civilian clothes and 2) often allowed for free/discount transit.
