Headland, R.K.. 1983 Hostilities in the Falkland Islands Dependencies March–June 1982. Polar Record, 21 (135). 549-558. 10.1017/S0032247400021951

Abstract
My short note in an earlier issue of Polar Record [21(133): 394–95 (1983)] outlined events in the Falkland Islands Dependencies arising from the Argentinian attack and occupation of April 1982, with a brief summary of the political exchanges preceding the Argentinian action. This article chronicles some of the events that precipitated the dispute, and the military activities leading to the occupation and subsequent recovery of King Edward Point, the administrative centre and principal station of the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) on South Georgia.
