Also on 19 February, a train carrying 20 similar guns was observed at the Gabela station. Reportedly, three such trains had passed through the Gabela station prior to 19 February. 3. On the morning of 9 :.arch, the Artillery Regiment of the 14 Division moved in battle array toward the Hungarian border, taking up positions ap- proximately seven kilometers from Koprovnica. On the same day unspecified units of the regiment returned to Koprovnica and were joined there by the remainder of the regiment during the next few days. It is not known whether this movement was undertaken because of operational needs or whether it was simply an exercise in the defense and closing of the border.
