In April, 1982, more than 200 years of tension erupted into open conflict when Argentine forces invaded the Falkland islands in the South Atlantic. A British Task Force was sent to reclaim the islands and British attacks started on 1 May, a beachhead was established at San Carlos on 21 May and the Argentines surrendered on 14 June. The author, a former Royal Marine Commando, recounts his experiences. He looks at all the units that took part, describing the fierce battles to regain the islands in the first major war for British forces since Korea.
