  • Summary

  • ‘I wanted to get out alive - I didn’t want to die.’ The taskforce hurriedly assembled to retake the Falkland Islands departed in a blaze of red-white-and-blue and sailed south - how would Argentina and her navy respond? As the diplomats shuttled back and forth across the Atlantic trying to prevent conflict, the taskforce steamed ever closer to the danger zone. Ahead of them British submarines kept watch - and spotted a potentially lethal threat, an Argentine battleship, the General Belgrano. What happened next remains the most deadly and most contested moment of the Falklands War.
