Falklands' youngsters say a big thank you to war veterans

Children living on the Falklands Islands have thanked the military personnel who fought and won the war 40 years ago.

One of the youngsters said, 'thanks to you, I can live the life that I want to live and the life that I love.' Another added, 'we don't know what the Falklands would be like if you guys didn't come and fight for us.'

The Falklands war was concluded on June 14, 1982, with the recapture of its capital, Stanley.
