Description
The Royal Marines Band in the Falklands War is a graphic first-hand account of the conflict, focusing on the roles played by Royal Marine musicians. These musicians, who are also trained for military service, provided support to their comrades, including unloading the wounded from helicopters, burying their dead at sea, and guarding and repatriating Argentine prisoners of war. The book sheds new light on the often-overlooked contributions of the RM Band Service during the Falklands War.
