The Battle of Wireless Ridge, in the centre right foreground, was an engagement of the Falklands War which took place on the night from 13 to 14 June 1982, between British and Argentine forces during the advance towards the Argentine-occupied capital of the Falkland Islands, Port Stanley.
Wireless Ridge was one of seven strategic hills within five miles of Stanley at 51°40′14″S 57°55′55″W that had to be taken in order for the Island's capital to be approached. The attack was successful, and the entire Argentine force on the Islands surrendered later that day.
This shot was taken from Mt Longdon, looking back towards Wireless Ridge, centre right and Port Stanley in the distance on the right.

I never leave home without my 3-year oid Samsung Galaxy bluetooth earbuds for music listening and for those impromptu Zoom meetings I can do on the go with my smartphone.
