Falklands Conflict - Marty Wilkin
Marty Wilkin is a former Royal Marine, he has seen action in Northern Ireland, the Falkland Islands and Afghanistan. This is his story of the Falklands War.
In the spring of 1982, thousands of British forces travelled to the remote, bleak Falkland Islands off the east coast of South America in response to an invasion by Argentine forces.
Carried by a mighty task force of Royal Navy vessels and Royal Fleet Auxiliary support ships, and assisted by cruise liners, tankers, cargo vessels and even tugs, 27,000 women and men were mobilised.
As winter descended on the South Atlantic, a bitter war raged for six weeks, resulting in the liberation and re-capturing of the Falkland Islands.
This was one of the most amazing conversations I have been part of to date, half way through I just button my mouth and listen.
Enjoy !
