West Coast,
The Falkland Islands are not in any way like North Dakota except for the big sky. The typography, flora and fauna are certainly very interesting. The climate is actually quite pleasant, the only drawback being the wind. Most of my friends there have come from many generations of British settlers. It is their land and they want it to remain so and keep their strong link to the UK. If you are from the USA, you would certainly fight to keep it.
Great news that the Argentinians can finally identify their dead, God knows we certainly lost many of our own.
