This video documents a 60-mile trek across East Falkland, retracing the overland route taken by 45 Commando of the British Royal Marines during the 1982 Falklands War. The journey was undertaken in the summer, over four days, by the uploader, Les Winner (Polaris Logistics), and Jari Laine (Varusteleka). While the original commandos marched with combat loads due to the loss of their transport helicopters, this group completed the hike without weapons or ammunition. The video highlights the challenges of arranging the trip, including obtaining landowner permission, and mentions the gear used, such as a Varusteleka RP80 rucksack, Asolo boots, Carinthia sleeping gear, and MREs.
