At the opening of the perJ.oa., t:n1s Battalion remained in Division reaerve camp conducting training on a 36 hour weekly achedule. In addition, daily patrols were di~tched to cover the ~attalion zone of re~oneib1lity for r~ar security, searching for possible guerrilla and infiltrator activity and destroyi114: shelters that could possibly be used by them for comfort and assembly points duri!lg the winter month••

On 11 December 1951, the Battalion departed with Regiment from Divi.. eion reserve CAmP ~~d re1ieved 2nd Battalion. 7th Marine: of thair s•ctor of the Division MLR along the area DT 2844[? to vr 32346s, Upon completion of the relief of ~d Battalion, 7th Marines, this Battalion, with all three latter companies on line, continu.ed to organize, occu.p)' and defend poeitione on the HLR, &!d. prepared to attack on order.

Ou.tpoata ;.--ere established for-ward of the front linea almost ni~htl7, au:pplementeo. w1 th eq_uad to platoon size patrols 1>0 cou..'lteract any enemy activity ir.•id~ the demarcation line. On two occasions theae pn.trol~ met srol!p!! of 4 to 6 enemy, killing 2, and wounding an undetermined number of othara, No frie~' casualties occurred fro~ these enco~~ters. The Battalion linea were pr-obed almost nightly th.roughou.t the period lzy- smal.l grou.ps of en.emy, who were, in each instance, repul.aed by small a:rc:a and mortar fire. .ill. ezpect•"'- mnall size enemy at:t.ack: :reported by surren(1.ering POW's to be :chod.ulcd for 24 to 25 ~ecember 1951, failed to materialize although plane to ooanter it hnd been prepared and put into effect by the Battalion. In addition to the small prob• received, almoat 4aily oertab areas of the line received 10 to 15 rouade of en ern~· mortar and art Ulery fire \fflich failed to inflict P.ny fri~ndly c~S~Qltiee.

The only oper~•ional deficie.,cy occurrin~; during the period was the neces.ary cnrte.ilment of anuncmition e>q>enc.itu.r~s on enemy aeBvity to the front,
