Album Info:
Because concussion when fixed tended to break medical glassware at the hospital located nearby, the battery was placed out of service during peacetime. It remained unmanned until April 17, 1942 when an anti-aircraft search light and radar unit, Battery E 60th Coast Artillery under Major William Massello took over No. 1 mortar (counted counter-clockwise from the far right) was totally unserviceable but by the 20th, the men were able to fire mortars 2, 3 & 4.
