Almost half way through my 4th tour here at MPA. What a time to be here with all the events going on.

Having done all the battlefield tours and experienced the weather (4th winter tour), I have the utmost respect for those who took part in the retaking of the islands in 1982.

It is good to see that the local population still have a genuine respect and liking for the British forces. Something not seen often these days.
