I'm Sixty years old next month. I served on HMS Antrim in South Georgia and also in the Falklands in San Carlos during the British landings. We fought hard and ultimately prevailed. The Argentine Air Force were extremely brave and skilled. They were warriors and fought well. Last year I had the honour, for the first time since the war, to return. Unexpectedly I met an Argentine soldier. We were visiting the Argentine cemetery at Darwin. He walked straight up to us, looked into our eyes and held out his hand. I took it and I shook it. We understood each other. There is an understanding over the years. A respect and a resolution. We are all human. Please don't seek to re fight old wars over key boards. There is no point. We are all brothers and sisters.
