The Falklands War - Part Two

An Argentine soldier's account of invading the Falkland Islands in 1982.

In the second programme on the Falklands War, Witness hears from an Argentine soldier who fought in the conflict.

Miguel Savage recalls the atrocious weather conditions faced by Argentine conscripts, as well as their mistreatment by officers.

And he remembers a terrifying final attack by British troops shortly before the Argentine surrender.
