When Britain sent a Naval Task Force to the South Atlantic in 1982 to reclaim the Falkland Islands from Argentinian invaders, it was a triumph of logistical organisation.

Chris Mc Nab reveals how it was done. He examines planning & logistics, how the Task Force was raised & assembled, the adaptation & conversion of the liners QE2, Canberra & Uganda, logistics of the voyage south, how Ascension Island became an operations hub for the Task Force, the use of air power, ships, landing craft, helicopters, weapons & equipment, & how the re-supply operation kept fuel, food & ammunition flowing across 7, 878 miles of ocean.
