The rocket appears to be from a German Nebelwerfer Rocket Launcher. This weapon earned a fearsome reputation with the rockets producing a sceeching sound on launch and when fired en masse provided a blanket of fire over a wide area.
This Signals Officer is Capt GE Hemelryk, (also my paternal grandmothers cousin)who was later wounded and taken prisoner. He was sadly killed in a motor accident in 1947
