Greetings askhistorians:
My uncle recently passed, leading to my family and I digging through old family photos. We found the below image of my grandfather and were hoping for some context. We have a rough timeline of his service during the war and some of his time in the national guard after the war. So, if we can get a rough idea of the date, we can likely place where the picture was taken.
Here's the picture, thanks so much for your time:
