The fellow chatting with Capa is George Rodger; a famous British war photographer and one of the co-founders of the Magnum agency. This picture was taken somewhere in France, I believe before the liberation of Paris.
Rodger was an extraordinarily brave and talented man, but was severely traumatized by his experiences during the war. When it was all done he swore that he would never cover a conflict again. Instead he documented the vanishing cultures of Africa, as they fell pray to the changing times.
