In this episode of Compact Warfare, we look at the Battle of Goose Green, the first major land battle of the Falklands War. Fought across 28 and 29 May 1982, the battle saw 2 Para attack Argentine positions around Darwin and Goose Green in a costly fight that tested leadership, endurance and morale. From the wider land campaign after San Carlos to the death of Lieutenant Colonel H. Jones and the surrender negotiated by Major Chris Keeble, this episode explores why Goose Green became one of the most famous and debated battles of the conflict.
