Having fought through the worst of the battle at Anzio, the Third Division was replaced by the 34th Infantry Division after 67 days of continuous frontline action and moved to corps reserve beginning March 28. Easter fell on April 9, 1944 as the Easter Bunny made an appearance in the barrel of a firmly entrenched beachhead gun. texag57
