    I Co. 3 Battalion 4th Marine Division was at Kwajalein and Saipan

    the 22nd Marines Regt was at Eniwetok - WIKI - Naval bombardment of Eniwetok began on 17 February, and the 22nd Marine Regiment, commanded by Col John T. Walker, landed on Engebi Island, on 18 February at 08:43 the next day.[1]:69-70 Resistance was light, and the island was declared secure by 1450, though mopping-up continued through the next day.[1]:70 US losses included 85 dead and missing plus 166 wounded
