It's either, depending on what language you speak. You wouldn't deny English speakers using "Cologne", "Munich" or "Bavaria", would you? (Köln, München and Bayern FYI)

Besides, at the time that this photo was taken, the city's population had been largely german for hundreds of years. I don't know the exact date but it's gotta be late March or April '45. There's a T-34 in the background of another picture so it is debatable whether the city belonged to the Reich (de jure), the Soviets (de facto) or Poland (geographically) at that point. But I wouldn't categorically deny it the name Danzig.

I'd say historically it's been both but if you're referencing a geographic location its best to use the one I can look up on a map today

Again, that seems to depend. If I look up the place via Google maps (which detects my location/language beim Germany/German) I still get lots of german names surrounding the Danzig area like Zoppot, Dirschau, Marienburg, Elbing, Konitz or Bütow. Others are at least put in brackets below their polish names (Lauenburg, Stolpmünde).
