Click on Stanley Town and take a virtual stroll along Ross Road, and view some of the sights of Stanley (also known as Port Stanley), such as the famous Christ Church Cathedral with its Whale Bone Arch, the mizzen mast of the S. S. Great Britain (the last remaining relic that survives the famous vessel here), the Liberation Monument which commemorates those who made the ultimate sacrifice and, those others, who gave so much during the war of 1982 with Argentina, so that the people of the Falkland Islands could enjoy the freedom that they so very much enjoy today; move on to Government House which was the scene of a ferocious gunfight between British Royal Marines Commandos and invading Argentine military special forces.

April 1st 2007 is dedicated to those members of the Falkland Islands Defence Force (FIDF), who were called to do their duty on April 1st 1982 to help defend against the Argentine invaders.
These pages cover the 25th anniversary of their call out, and was held to commemorate and pay their respects to all those who participated in the following campaign to recover our Islands.
Those men were ill trained, ill equipped (e.g. their weapons being some 'Self Loading Rifles', but mainly weapons left over from World War 1 SMLE’s [Short Magazine Lee Enfield], and World War 2 Enfield No. 4 rifles, each with only one magazine that held only 10 rounds of ammunition), and not knowing what to expect.

Go to the Falkland Islands Forum, and post a query, make a point, observation or any question you like, and see who answers and what their response is; naturally it will be an honest and open reply, which I’am, sure, will enhance and develop your knowledge. With any luck, the forum will develop to a healthy and energetic discussion page.
