Argie Commando
Slide 22 of 44
In April 1982 a large force of 6,500 Argentina commandos and Marines supported by an aircraftcraft carrier, helicopters and armoured personnel carriers assaulted the island. Although there is some question about the Argentina claim to the Falklands or the Malvinas as they call them. They also took the opportunity of taking South Georgia which was several hundred kms away and had never been any question about their ownership. South Georgian’s were always recognized at a British possession.
Et puis les Argentins ont débarqué le 2 avril 1982. Ils étaient 6,500 contre 200.
