A difficult but necessary journey. The men who answered the call for help of the Falklands Citizens. We Will Remember Them 🌹

True hero's Scots guards

Just lost my uncle Tommy Paterson who was a guardsman and fought at tumbledown. Learned at his funeral that he was nominated for the British Empire Medal for carrying his comrade off the battlefield through a mine field. Of course he never mentioned this to me as he like all of you guys was too humble.

Lets say a quiet prayer to all those who made it through only to take their lives after!!, they could even be amongst these men were watching now, 2013 news article, after a reignited argentine presidents sabre rattling over the islands, ex para stephen hood after hearing this within hours had took his own life, RIP to all, lest we never forget...

Good bless you all who served in Scots guards 💂‍♀️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Centuries of war lie upon the shoulders of the British soldiers.

Well said, Mr Hales

Hope everyone eventually found some peace . The ones that were still fighting their demons I hope they have come to terms that they tried their best and thats all they had to give

Great tribute to the fallen of the Scots Guards. But looks a bit cold to be in a kilt. Thanks for posting.

the entire islands are owned by just 11 very wealthy people. 9 dont even live there. so anyone who went over to fight for rich mens land is a total half witt.

I don’t know how brave men can go through such a battle, hand to hand fighting, come through it and not suffer some degree of PTSD. It’s got to be impossible.

Gus came to see me in my younger years when I spent time in prison. I was in a cycle of homelessness, addiction, crime, sometimes in hostels, and it consumed a decade or more of my life. My last sentence I had 2.5 years and was the longest I had done. I had time to think and try to change my patterns and lifestyle and read a bit about Buddhism. Then Gus came in to see me after I requested to talk to someone. We had a few sessions with a handful of other guys and did some meditation mixed with talking. He was the most down to earth guy I ever knew but from what I remember the prison were making it difficult for us to allocate an area for our sessions and guards or staff to get us from different wings and to watch over us and it became more difficult each time. They have employees full time for chaplains of all other beliefs/religions/faiths but nit buddhism. There was a chapel for christians and other equivalent rooms for other religions like myslim, islam and so on. But for us somebody had to voluntarily travel across country to try to accomodate out little group. Then I got transferred to Parc Prison in Bridgend and it got worse. A month or 2 went by and Gus had found his way to me and came in. We had a few group sessions then it got increassingly difficult and I remember Gus coming to see me alone on my wing. He said it might be his last visit and asked if he could help in any way. I was struggling to find books and material to teach me more. I had a few books from our group sessions but the library in there had nothing on Buddhism. I wanted to learn more about the history of Buddhism itself. Next time he came was his last visit and he brought me a huge book called The Encyclopedia of Buddhism and im sure it was from his own collection. I was sad to see him go but he changed my way of seeing things and really had a massive impact on my mental health and thought patterns. He was so down to earth and inspiring. I got out 12 years ago and I will admit I am not a full on practicioner of Buddhism but it has stuck with me every day. It is a part of my life. I havent been arrested or back to prison since and Gus is a major part of that. I am housed, in a relationship, had my ups and downs but am happy overall. Deep In the book was a cut out of an old newspaper clipping of who I believe is his brother maybe. I kept it safe all this time and wanted to give it back someday. Anyway, I cant thank Gus enough. He told me what I needed to hear and it changed my life. I hope he is well and OK. Ben

Pure class, did my Brecon course with a Scots guards L/Sargeant who got a mention in despatches from Tumbledown a topman. A regiment with a long proud tradition.

Now its 40 years later. I wonder what the guys did to commemorate it this year.

The most touching memorial I salute all of these brave men { ex -RN Submariner ]

40 Years ago Today The Fine Men Of The Scots Guards Fought There Way to Top Of Mt Tumbledown!! Remember There Comrades Who Were Killed And Injured 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧😓 Gone But Never Forgotten

Malvinas argentinas

I joined the 1st Btn in 1974 and served with Danny in support company he was anti tanks I was mortars he was a larger than life bloke and he liked a good laugh he went to 2nd sg when we went to Hong Kong I have his photo on my wall I see him everyday

Only a PM with the strength of Lady Thatcher, who had unlimited faith in the armed forces, could have led this war to the conclusion we achieved.

My total respects to the British Armed forces .

This is why people do me head in about Maggie Thatcher saying she won the war, Admiral Sir Henry Leach is the one who pushed for this campaign and he had to do it with ships which were about to be scrapped, even now we have soldiers and sailors and probably airmen on the streets, while immigrants are being put in hotels, disgusting

He is crying, just like his Mom! Haha laaaaad

Amazing men who faught alongside my father, Christopher Herrity. He loved every single one of you even if you never got on. He remembered you all his life and you where his brothers. Rip dad ❤️

Esta guerra fue una mierda the falklands war is shet

We are going back for the 40th anniversary next year, its quite odd last time young fit in 82 and in 2022 not so young and definitely not so fit.

You're no failure Pipe Major you're our hero as were all those Bonnie lads. God Bless.
