The men of the 29th Marine Commando Royal Artillery return from the Falklands
The men of the 29th Marine Commando Royal Artillery return from the Falklands. They wade ashore at Plymouth from the same landing craft used in their invasion of San Carlos Bay. The homecoming came as the assault ships Fearless and Intrepid headed toward Portsmouth. The ships made a temporary halt in Plymouth Sound so the commandos could return directly to their Plymouth barracks. 13th July 1982

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment in history as "The men of the 29th Marine Commando Royal Artillery return from the Falklands". It is July 13th, 1982, and these brave soldiers are wading ashore at Plymouth, their faces filled with a mix of exhaustion and relief. The same landing craft that carried them to the invasion of San Carlos Bay now brings them back home. As the assault ships Fearless and Intrepid make their way towards Portsmouth, they pause in Plymouth Sound to allow these commandos to reunite directly with their loved ones waiting anxiously on land. The significance of this temporary halt cannot be overstated - it symbolizes not only a physical return but also an emotional one. The Falklands conflict had been a challenging chapter for these marines, testing their resilience and courage in unimaginable ways. Now, as they step onto familiar ground once again, there is an overwhelming sense of accomplishment mixed with bittersweet memories. This image immortalizes that complex blend of emotions. Photographer George Phillips has skillfully captured this historic moment through his lens. His work allows us to glimpse into the lives of those who fought bravely during this tumultuous period in history. As we reflect upon this photograph today, we honor the sacrifices made by these men while acknowledging the indomitable spirit that brought them safely back home.
