Argentine Cemetery, Darwin, East Falkland, Falkland Islands, South Atlantic. This cemetery on East Falkland is surrounded by a white picket fence, set in a remote area North of Stanley. The Falklands War ended in 1982, the 25th Anniversary will be commemorated in June 2007. The graves of young Argentine conscripts reflect clouds. Many young Argentine soldiers were killed during the conflict many from the cold rather than the fighting.
