From the remote reaches of Ouaddaï in Chad to the plains of the Euphrates in Iraq, the Bigors of the 11th have been deployed on every overseas operational theatre for more than 40 years. Heir to the 1st Colonial Artillery Regiment, whose memory it carefully preserves through the battle honours inscribed on its standard, the 11th Marine Artillery Regiment has been based in Brittany since 1929, the date of its official creation. As the fire support and intelligence regiment of the 9th Marine Infantry Brigade, it is distinguished by its versatility and its recognised combat experience. This work invites you to discover the fascinating history of this Marine troops unit with its singular identity, through numerous photographs, illustrations and previously unpublished documents.
