Pics from the 184th AAA Gun Battalion

Postby Uncle_Hulka » Sun Apr 04, 2010 9:49 am

Entering the war as 1st Battalion, 61st Coast Artillery (AA) Regiment, the battalion was initially deployed to Iceland in March 1942. The battalion arrived in England during August of the following year and was re designated as the 184th AAA Gun Battalion in keeping with the reorganization of Antiaircraft Artillery. Trading in their old 3-inch guns for up-to-date 90mm pieces, the unit began training on the new equipment and took their place among the organizations providing antiaircraft defense for England. Here are some pics from my grandfather's album.
