Amphibious assault Falklands : the battle of San Carlos Water

The author was in charge of the amphibious operations in the Falklands War. He describes some of the problems involved in recreating a largely abandoned operational technique in an ad-hoc fashion. During the time it took to 'go south' some sense of order was imposed and a not very well defined command structure evolved. The author tells how San Carlos Water was chosen for the assault and subsequent inshore operations. Contains extensive black and white photographs.
