@@patricialacerda9300 Hi, Glyn was from the same council estate as myself. We both attended Llanrumney High School in the 70s. After leaving school Glyn joined the Welsh Guards .When the Falklands war broke out Glyn sailed away on the QE2 with the task force. Tragically Glyn was killed On the sir Galahad in Bluff cove along with 48 of his company.RIP GLYN.

The wishes of Mr. Mrs Thomas were to keep his memory private therefore I think that's all I can tell you . Sorry . I think you'll respect that .

Perdone que me meta y opine este post ya que es un homenaje a sus caídos y con todo respeto le digo que Galtieri no significa nada los argentinos, las personas que fallecieron ahí y las que volvieron dieron todo por su país y no por él. Argentina tiene un profundo sentimiento hacia esas islas, eso nada más quería decirle. Pero bueno ninguna Guerra es buena... Nadie sale ganando en el fondo 😔 Dios tenga en la gloria a todos los que ofrendaron su vida ya sea argentino o inglés... 🙏

You obviously don't know fuck all then @blahblah6968 Suggest you research the situation that left the Battalion on the Sir Galahad, let alone make further comments about being other than their operational effectiveness! Hyped up media with paras this, marines that, but not all units are mentioned who did make the trek south, let alone battles that all units participated in. Look up the conflict chronology, especially with the unit you just disrespect with that fucking moronic comment.

@@blahblah6968not entirely correct they supported the attack on goose Green. Also half the battalion was dropped off the night before Sir Galahad was bombed. The rest of the battalion should of disembarked before first light but the battalion 2nd in command refused to do so without a written order and his men paid the price for it. Before commenting maybe you should research what happened and speak to some of the veterans.
