I think this is HHMS Helle (alternate spelling of Elli), a Greek naval base in Egypt. Situated somewhere on the Suez Canal perhaps? There was unrest and a mutiny there in 1944.

Do you have copies of the enclosure and ambulance cover you mention? They may provide additional clues.

Not doubting Morenweiser, but a Penang marking sounds unusual.
Malcolm H Wade writing in The Malayan Philatelist, Vol 22, No 2 , March-April 1981, p.22 "Civilian Censorship of mail in Malaya, 1939-42" suggests this is a Singapore marking, which would make more sense.
