Today 2nd April is the anniversary of the start of the Las Malvinas conflict during which 649 Argentine military personnel, 255 British soldiers and three Falkland Islanders died. In 2010, for the bicentenary of Argentina, Martin Ron painted this excellent mural in Tres de Febrero remembering those who fought in the war.
