 | | The artillerymen of the 11th, in their battery positions, were not quite as exposed as the infantry to numerous, banzai charges by the Japanese, but they were constantly harassed by naval gunfire and air attacks. |
 | | The 11th was still part of the 3d Marine Brigade, but, on 17 July, when the remainder of the 1st Marine Division returned from China, the 3d Brigade was disbanded, and the 11th Marines reverted to the control of the 1st Marine Division. |
 | | On 28-29 June 1949, the 11th Marines conducted a two-day, 100-mile field exercise, the purpose of which was to improve the speed of the Marines at laying and registering the cannon and to improve the skill of the truck drivers who were required to tow the weapons along narrow, steep, twisting mountain trails. |
