Kategorier:
14th June 1982, Liberation Day. British troops reach their objective and white flags fly over Port Stanley. Argentinian forces sign the declaration of surrender at Government House and history is made as the British reclaim the Falkland Islands. The resilience of the taskforce is met with respite as they lay down their weapons and begin the long journey back home. It was a conflict that came with consequences; more than 900 people lost their lives. But the lasting legacy of peace and prosperity continues for those who live there now.
