Central to the main events in London and the Falkland Islands were the personal recollections of veterans and Islanders as they told their stories in their own words.
The events in the Falkland Islands, led by a ceremony held at San Carlos Water, were part of a live link attended by the HRH The Earl of Wessex and Minister for the Armed Forces Adam Ingram.
In London, 10,000 Falklands veterans and their families were present at the main event which took place on Horse Guards Parade. A traditional "Drumhead" ceremony and March Past were held, attended by HRH The Prince of Wales, HRH The Duke of York, The Duke of Kent, The Prime Minister, Secretary of State for Defence Des Browne and Veterans Minister Derek Twigg.
