- War In The Falklands
As a 19 year old Royal Marines Commando I deployed to the Falkland Islands as part of Operation Corporate.
This is NOT a 'full on' talk with graphic examples of battle.
I will take you, through my personal experience, using my personal collection of photographs and memorabilia. From being woken up early on the 2nd April 1982 , Sailing on the ill fated LSL Sir Galahad, 'Bomb Alley', landing ashore, the advance across the Falklands to the surrender, sailing home on HMS Fearless and the welcome home.

East of England Short Notice (less than one month would be nice but can possibly do shorter) Keen Amateur
I am a former Royal Marines Commando, Police Officer and Security Professional.
I have a passion for military history which became focused on medals when researching my families history, discovering where and when various family members had served and what campaign medals they were awarded.
