During this conflict, the humble but very sharp bayonet came once more to the front when British troops on several occasions 'fixed bayonets' and charged the enemy most notably when 3 PARA attacked Argentine positions during the Battle of Mount Longdon on the 11/12 June 1982. Elsewhere, marines from 42 Commando also assaulted defensive outposts on Mount Harriet at the point of their bayonets while other marines from 45 Commando captured Two Sisters. This 2-man set shows a British paratrooper from 3 PARA about to inflict a very serious bayonet wound on a very surprised Argentine soldier!
