during the 1982 Falklands War with Argentina.
I can tell you (since I was in Argentina last month) that the Malvinas Islands (aka The Falkland Islands) are still very much on Argentinians' minds. They are pretty p*ssed off that the British came about 100 years ago and pretty much TOOK them. Nice. Then, they saw the 1982 incident as their big chance to get the Malvinas Islands back, and well...we know how that turned out. Le Sigh........
