Thirty Years Since The Falkland Conflict Ended : Darwin Argentine Cemetery : Falklands

This is the cemetery on the Falklands where the Argentinean soldiers from the Falklands / Malvinas conflict are buried. So sad. These soldiers were conscripted and formed part of an army sent to invade the Falklands by their then fascist military dictatorship. The failure to hold the Falkland Islands for longer than 74 days because of the resulting conflict with British forces ....... indirectly led to the fall of the Military dictatorship that ran Argentina at the time ....... So in the end the British soldiers directly freed the Falkland Islanders from occupation by a military force commanded by that fascist dictatorship and they indirectly caused to the fall of that military fascism in Argentina ...... therefore also freeing Argentineans from fascism. Sadly hundreds of servicemen died on both sides of the conflict.
