More than 200 years of tension between Britain and Argentina over the sovereignty of the Falkland Islands erupted into an open conflict in April 1982 when Argentina invaded the islands. A naval task force was despatched from England to reclaim the islands from the invading troops, and the first British fighting in the Falklands took place on 1 May 1982. A beachhead was established at San Carlos on 21 May and after heavy fighting the islands were regained by British forces on 14 June when the Argentine invaders surrendered.
