Memorial to Las Malvinas


I stumbled across this memorial to those who died in the Falklands War against England to try to regain ownership of the islands that lay off the coast of Argentina. How could England possibly claim these islands which are so far away from England. The military junta here was beginning to lose credibility, so they decided to try to regain control of Las Malvinas - it was a slaughter. Two soldiers guard this memorial and an eternal flame burns.
