Aidan’s Story

Aidan Forbes, who retired to the Isle of Man a number of years ago, was serving with the second Battalion of the Parachute Regiment in 1982 and sailed with the Task Force from Portsmouth to the Falkland Islands.

Here’s a second chance to listen to Aidan share his story with Chris Pearson.

This programme was first broadcast in June 2022 to mark the 40th anniversary of the surrender of Argentine forces on the Falkland Islands following a 74-day conflict.
