Falklands 25

Thursday 14 June 2007 marks the 25th anniversary of the liberation of the Falkland Islands following the invasion by Argentina on 2nd April 1982. Nearly 1,000 people lost their lives during the conflict and many others made huge personal sacrifices.

Since then, the Falkland Islands have flourished, both economically and socially, and are still a dependent territory of Britain, and will remain so for as long as the Islanders wish.

The events are commemorating the achievements of all those involved in the conflict 25 years ago. There will be ceremonies and a veterans march amongst other events.

We have launched a reunions organiser for the Falklands 25 event taking place in London this June on Forces Reunited at http://www.forcesreunited.org.uk/reunionsnewfalklands.asp where you can arrange to meet up with other members who will be attending the event.

Why not list a reunion now?

Military News

Captured crew can sell stories: MoD

The 15 British service personnel held captive in Iran have been given special permission to sell their stories to the media.

The Ministry of Defence said it had taken the unusual decision because of the "exceptional circumstances" surrounding their 13-day ordeal.

It means that the eight Royal Navy sailors and seven Royal Marines can now look forward to five or six-figure payouts.

However, the move could also expose them to criticism from others in the armed forces who have suffered as a result of the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan but have not been able to cash in in the same way.

Is this right? Have your say now in our forums at http://www.forcesreunited.org.uk/forum/default.asp

Can you help promote the site?

Could you spare the time to help spread the word about Forces Reunited, by displaying a poster in your local Legion, Library, NAAFI or pub?

There are quite literally millions of ex-service men and women out there who don’t, as yet, know about us, and would probably like the opportunity to get in touch with their old buddies.

Help them to find their friends by spreading the word where you can.

You can grab our poster in Word format Here.

If you don't have a printer and would like to display some posters, let us know and we'll send some to you.
