    I agree. Tokyo Harbor. Looks like an Iowa Class Battleship in the foreground. That might be a CVE on the horizon forward of the BB and aft of the Tin Can(s)

USS Missouri (BB-63), where the ceremonies took place, is at left. USS Detroit (CL-8) is in the right distance. Aircraft include TBM, F6F, SB2C and F4U types.
