"Forty-four men served in the Navy Mobile Anti-Aircraft Battery 411. These men trained on 40mm, 20mm and .50 caliber machine guns." Roger Jeanfaivre, electrician mate 3rd class, Navy Mobile Anti-Aircraft Battery 411
"I was an electrician. The guns ... the 40mm guns were electrically controlled and my job was to start the generator and get it up to speed and then transfer ... the electricity to the gun. When they were all set ... my job was just to keep the generator running."
