Narrative Narrative

The figure depicts a Marine from Naval Party 8901 that helped defend Government House when the Argentines invaded the Falkland Islands on 1st & 2nd April 1982.

This figure has the RMC version of the L1A1 which I prefer to the DML version that came with the Falklands Para figure.
