Welsh national memorial to the Falklands.

Hundreds of Falklands veterans gathered in Cardiff this weekend for the unveiling of the first Welsh national memorial to the Falklands.
At a special ceremony to mark the 25 years since the 1982 conflict, a stone brought to Cardiff from the South Atlantic islands, with the name of every Welsh soldier who fell victim to the war inscribed on it,
was uncovered.
Around 1,000 people attended the ceremony, including veterans and the familes of those who lost their lives in the conflict.
Welsh Guardsman Simon Weston, of Penylan, Cardiff, who was severely burned after an attack on the landing ship Sir Galahad, said he was proud to be at the unveiling of the monument in Cathays Park yesterday Read It Here
