Worked for me here in the US. Great footage but can't believe it's been thirty years!

Thanks for posting this.

All the best, Roy

I have written a new book about the 3rd battalion The Parachute Regiment during the last three days of the Falklands, there is a previously unseen clip in the middle of the video of a casevac on Mount Longdon.

this account is the first account with an accurate time line right through the battle for Mount Longdon due me obtaining the radio transcripts of 3 Para and various other units,
