Chinook wreckage


The wreckage of a Argentinean Chinook helicopter that was bombed on the ground not far outside Stanley. A lot of it has been removed by souvenir hunters. The titanium metal is still rust free even after being in the open for almost 25 years.

Even as you drive along the round from Stanley to Mount Pleasant you can see the placements where the Argentinean soldiers camped in the hillsides. If you go further a field you can still see the remains of the slit trenches dug into the ground.
