I don't have any photos but my Dad was with the Marines sitting in the bay as the Japanese surrendered on the Missouri, they went on shore immediately to gather arms.

I asked him how cooperative the people were and he said they were very helpful with no problems. He added that "They wore us out. Every time we would stop for a break they would pull out gloves and want us to play catch."
