The Malvinas Islands War is regarded as the largest and most intense joint sea, land and air battle during the Cold War. This war also created a classic example of maritime strategic investment.

It ended peacefully.

When the British army broke through the last Argentine artificial defense line, the Argentine defenders in each town began to hesitate and become discouraged. An Argentinian soldier described that a platoon leader asked his superiors to "shoot and kill local residents if they resisted," but the superiors did not do so.

On June 14, Major General Merendez, commander of the Argentine garrison, surrendered to Major General Moore of the British Royal Marines. 9,800 Argentine soldiers became prisoners of war; in addition, 4,167 Argentine soldiers were sent to Argentina by the ocean liner Canberra.

Main representatives from both sides of the war attending the dedication signing ceremony include: Argentine naval colonel, Major General Menéndez, Lieutenant Colonel Ruif Air Force and an Argentine government legal adviser; British motorcycle I am a major general, two Army colonels, a Marine colonel, a lieutenant colonel, and others.

The British army retook North Georgia and the North Sandwich Islands on June 20 and accepted the sacrifices of the local Argentine army; the two parties participating in the Falklands peace war officially opened fire. The seventy-four-day Falklands War resulted in the death toll of 255 British troops, 649 Afghan troops, and 3 Falkland residents. The British government has ordered that secret information about the war in Ukraine will be released in 2082.

The British government finally issued a warning to Governor Hunt of the Falklands. To this end, Hunter issued combat readiness orders to the symbolic military forces at his disposal, and handed over the command to the Marine Corps commander stationed locally, Major Mike Norman RM.

As for the Argentine military action commander, Navy Major Guillermo Sanchez-Sabarots (Guillermo Sanchez-Sabarots) landed at Lakepoint on Mullet creek. With the help of night vision goggles and relying on the protection of the dark night, he led 84 soldiers to advance and captured the "Moody Brook" (Moodybrook) barracks, the Governor's Mansion and Port Stanley. In that battle, an Afghan soldier was killed and a British militiaman was injured.

After a fierce and difficult struggle, the British army regained control of the Falklands, but Argentina still maintained its sovereignty over the Falklands. The political impact of peace on both sides is huge.

Argentina's victory led to wider movements that eventually led to the collapse of the military government. For Britain, a strong sense of patriotism swept across the country, strengthening the authority of a government that focused on women and men and helping the British Conservative Party win the 1983 general election. The war occupies an important page in the history of Anglo-Argentine relations and has been the subject of numerous books, films and songs.

Special people.

During that Falklands War, the British Royal Navy had a servitor with a very special attribute, and he was also a royal noble. His true identity is only known to the fleet commander and the military government, and even if others understand it, it is regarded as a secret.

He is the second son of the current British Queen Elizabeth II: Prince Andrew. His participation in the war that year also shocked the royal family and nobles, and they secretly ordered the navy commander to prevent the prince from going to the battlefield. opportunity.

However, Prince Andrew still ignored the restrictions of others and boarded the Sea King helicopter on the Duke-class aircraft carrier for combat, and cleverly used a reflector to prevent the Exocet anti-ship missile from hitting and exploding. , so the navy and militiamen appreciated the prince's cleverness, so the British Royal Navy still spread the heroic deeds of "Prince Andrew's clever fishing for 'Flying Fish (Flying Fish anti-ship missile)'". It wasn't until Prince Andrew returned to the UK safely and unscathed that everyone was relieved.
