CARRYING ON
With Britain and Argentina ratcheting up the military rhetoric, Falkland Islanders recall the 1982 conflict, and how the islands, and their lives, have transformed since.
Lisa Johnston, Editor of the Penguin News, the Falkland Islands’ only newspaper (Facebook page), is a sixth generation Islander, and a descendant of one of the earliest British families to emigrate to the Islands in 1840. She was 12 when Argentina invaded the Islands in 1982, and recorded her experiences in a children’s book, Waking Up to War.
