Falklands

    

                                       

It was on April 2nd 1982 that Argentina invaded the Falkland Isles overwhelming the single company of Royal Marines guarding the islands capital. Only three days later The Royal Navy Task Force set sail including frigates, destroyers, troop carriers, landing ships and supply vessels. On June 14th the white flag was flying over Port Stanley and British forces took back control of the islands. During this two month period many British lives were lost and this model is dedicated to our forces who twenty years ago fought for their country and gave their lives.

This is the 4th year that Oxford Diecast has teamed up with the Royal British Legion to raise funds. It is the UK’s leading charity safeguarding the welfare, interests and memory of those who served in the Armed Forces and their dependants. It provides financial, social and emotional support to millions and its benevolence spans all age groups from the oldest to the very young.
