Malvinas: Ariel Tascón, the Argentine who remembers his time in the islands and his friendship with another English soldier

On April 2, 1982, Argentina disputed with the United Kingdom the sovereignty of the Malvinas Islands, the archipelago of 11,718 km2 of surface, located about 600 km from the Argentine coast.

Although the dispute over the territory dates back more than 500 years, on April 2, 1982, the ruling military junta, commanded by Leopoldo Fortunato Galtieri, ordered the invasion of the islands, in the midst of a serious internal crisis.

According to the Ministry of Defense, more than 23,000 Argentine soldiers landed in the Malvinas, the vast majority of them barely 18 years old, including, Ariel Tascona citizen from Mar del Plata.
