    I was in the Merchant Navy at the time and went to the Falklands on the MV Cederbank carrying a cargo of JCB;s and equipment for the building of the Runway,there was a heavy presence of Military on board and we also stopped at Ascension Island on route.

    I spent 12 weeks there in the end, some of it due to the crazy weather and not be able to leave Stanley.

    I was asked to go again for a year on the Uganda but declined.

    The only pic i ever found of the Cederbank and it just happened to have been taken in the falklands while i was on it.
