Burial at sea

U.S.S. Shackle. A Diver class rescue and salvage ship. Worked it's way across the Pacific and ended up in Tokyo Bay clearing the dock area's around Yokosuka. Returned to Pearl Harbor in December of 1945 where my father joined her. I believe this picture was taken in California, It is stamped on the back "Peterson's Studio, Wilmington, California". Can anyone read the flags?
