Wonderful photy. Sorry am useless in respect of information, but having read of the Zetland whilst researching something else in the past, I would guess it was when she was in Egypt having a re-fit (Hunter Destroyer)in order to take on the Japanese, for which she was not required to do so due to surrender. However, it is a grand photy and time may be against you identifying those ship mates - you could try this: HMS Zetland Association, c/o R Davies, Netherlea, Llanfairpwll, Anglesey, LL61 5SZ.
Good Luck.
