I have my mind exactly this pic what I upload but bigger and better resolution. But If you have any pic brit commandos from WW2 I will be happy when I see it.

On this pic is HQ, 1st Special Service Brigade in D-Day. In this pic is Lord Lovat, (nearest arm piper in water)

Hi Polar,
Check this link and see if it's what you require.

Incidentally, if you wish to see the bagpipes Bill Millin played at D Day (featured of course in the picture) they are located in Dawlish Museum, Devon. Their website doesn't mention them but Mr. Millen, the piper lived in Dawlish and bequeathed them to the museum.
