Description
Summary:The purpose of this research is to show the Argentinean assessment of the war, especially in those controversial aspects where both sides strongly disagree. All the information is mainly from Argentinean sources due to the fact that the author had a two months assignment to the Argentinean C-130 Squadron from the First Air Transport Brigade. This fact allowed the author to talk with a lot of different people involved in the war, especially from the Air Force. He also had the opportunity to consult many official reports in relation with the operations, and also to read the newspaper and magazines which had just begun to analyze and assess the recent war.
