DOWN SOUTH: A FALKLANDS WAR DIARY (PB)

In 1982 Lieutenant Chris Parry sailed aboard destroyer HMS Antrim to liberate the Argentine-occupied Falkland Islands. Parry and his crew, in their Wessex helicopter, were soon launched into action rescuing an SAS party stuck on a glacier in gales that had already downed two others. Soon after they single-handedly pursued and fatally wounded a submarine before taking part in terrifying but crucial drop landings under heavy fire. Down South is a day-by-day account of war fought in the most appalling conditions by men whose grit and fighting spirit overcame all obstacles.
