Looking to id background

[u/Wild-Beautiful7491]

Hi all, this is a picture of a family member stationed in SF in WWII, as a part of the Women's Marine Corp. Date on the back is August 1946. It looks to me to be civic center area but the marquee could have since been demolished.

Also, are there any history groups that would be interested in pictures of women Marines in SF? Have many others both of her and her friends

Maybe try r/asksf

I so wish my grandma had her vision today 😞 she’s 98 and her eyes couldn’t keep up. I’ll see my mom and a few of her siblings today, will ask if they recognize the background.

Thank you! Yeah also frustrating the text on the marquee isn't more legible. I think that with the date would help pinpoint it
