Salute to the Falklands fallen: British troops recreate march made during the final days of the war almost four decades on from conflict with Argentina
[MAIL] Salute to the Falklands fallen: British troops recreate march made during the final days of the war almost four decades on from conflict with Argentina.
Soldiers from 3rd Battalion, Parachute Regiment made 50-mile march to seize control of islands' capital.
Today's regiment retraced their steps 37 years later to salute the 23 Paras who perished in treacherous assault.
Falklands War lasted 74 days from April to June 1982, and was tug-of-war for the traditionally British islands.
Except to Oblahblah they were always "the Malvinas Maldives"
