Fraught with misunderstandings and mistrust, the incident left three British sailors and two Americans, including the captain of the sealer, Charles H. Barnard, abandoned in the barren, windswept, and inhospitable Falklands for a year and a half. With deft narrative skill and unequaled knowledge of the very pith of the seafaring life, Dolin describes in vivid and harrowing detail the increasingly desperate existence of the castaways during their eighteen-month ordeal―an all-too-common fate in the Great Age of Sail. 1839

Hooper Prize - Third Place: Royal Navy Future Challenges

Third Place (Joint) AB David Dulla, HMS TAMAR It is more than 40 years since the Falklands conflict. Evaluate the challenges the Royal Navy face if it were to engage in a non-NATO supported conflict in the Southern Hemisphere Context and Considerations Argentina surrendered their claim on the British overseas territory 74 days after invading the Falkland Islands, an outcome determined by poor strategic planning coupled with an under estimation of the United Kingdom's political appetite for a military response. Using this short war as the sole benchmark for predicting future challenges for the Royal Navy is unreliable over 40 years later, however this essay argues the same four considerations still determine the scale and success of any scenario in the future. Political, social, environmental and economic factors drive the capabilities of everyone from the Prime Minister down to a tradesman running a small painting and decorating business, with all organisations subject to conditions of which they have limited levels of control. Challenges vary depending on these factors, but conclusions will highlight financial investments, determined by social and political support, will create risks for the Royal Navy. A turbulent world outlook and the NATO perspective Politically the United Kingdom is largely divided in 2024 between the Conservative and the Labour parties. The UK have led support for Ukraine in their ongoing defence when the Russian Federation invaded in February 2022, fuelling a deterioration in East-West relations which is comparable to the Cold War 1947-1991. Meanwhile, Israel invaded Palestinian Gaza in October 2023 after responding to a Hamas attack on a music festival, following years of unrest over territorial claims traced back to political agreements made in the wake of World War II. In addition, Yemen has seen the Iranian backed Houthis carry out attacks on western merchant ships attempting to transit the Red Sea. And finally, the People's Republic of China is attempting to assert dominance in the South China Sea, with the deployment of Royal Navy and NATO allies to safeguard free trade and fisheries. With these significant and potentially escalating conflicts dominating politics, focusing on the northern hemisphere is the key focus for UK governments. This prioritisation means deploying less operational capability south of the equator, arguably challenging the speed at which the Royal Navy's main fighting force could respond in these areas. Article 6 of the North Atlantic Treaty stipulates an attack on British overseas territory south of the Tropic of Cancer would not qualify for collective defence between NATO Nations, and as seen in the Iraq War 2003 it is easier to make a political argument for military conflict when you are supported by other countries because resources and risks are shared. With no weapons of mass destruction found during the Iraq campaign, and 179 UK military personal losing their lives, the conflict and consequent enquiry conducted in 2016 concluded a deficient case for war where preparations were inadequate and military objectives failed. Tony Blair, the Prime Minister during the conflict, was scrutinised publicly which emphasised the personal accountability of decision makers. Poor intelligence prior to any conflict in the southern hemisphere would potentially lead to the same outcomes. Voters responded when Labours government lost the election in 2010, with a decline in electorate trust a contributing factor. Conversely, Thatcher gained popularity in her Britain-alone response seen in the Falklands, cementing the nickname 'Iron Lady' while seeing her landslide re-election in 1983 and 1987 following a conflict 8000 miles away from the UK but a beacon for political support. Both the Iraq and the Falkland conflicts were positioned as the defence of British security, but both had very different outcomes for politicians which influences their predecessors. The Royal Navy would encounter g...

The South Atlantic and the Antarctic have drawn considerable attention from big powers, who are racing to strengthen their regional footprints and presence as the region opens up for navigation and other potential uses. Despite very low tensions, the South Atlantic is a recurrent area of discussion in the UK given the territorial claim over the Falkland archipelago by Argentina. The UK's commitment to defend its overseas territories, blending both soft and hard power, has larger strategic implications given the increasingly contested geopolitics of the South Atlantic. In this episode, host Neil Melvin is joined by Juan Pablo Toro of AthenaLab in Chile and Dr Carlos Solar, Senior Research Fellow at RUSI, to discuss the prospects of the South Atlantic and Antarctica becoming zones where geo-economic competition and militarisation risk destabilising the status quo.

CONTENT The guest today is former Royal Marine and member of the Mountain and Arctic Warfare Cadre Nige Devenish. Nige was my guest back on podcast # 046 when we discussed his career in the cadre and their part on Operation CORPORATE during the Falklands war in 1982.  On this podcast we talk about his recent visit to the Falklands, his first since his deployment, with other cadre veterans to lay a memorial stone at the site of the battle for Top Malo House.  We discuss the battle in detail and his thoughts on the other battle sites he visited.  We also talk about the contribution made by Falkland islanders to the campaign and what the island is like today.  I would like to thank Traighana Smith News Editor at Falklands Radio for providing extracts of interviews conducted by the station with former Cadre veterans.   DESERT ISLAND DITS BOOK CHOICES Most of our book recommendations can be bought via the Unconventional Soldier Bookshop.  10% of each purchase supports the pod and helps independent book stores on line sales.  Nige's choice on this podcast is An Unsung Hero: Tom Crean - Antarctic Survivor by Michael Smith.  My choice was Tempsford Academy: Churchill's and Roosevelt's Secret Airfield by Bernard O'Connor.  "BUY ME A COFFEE" If you want to support the podcast you can buy me a coffee here.

Introducción a la serie, con la exposición de motivos, objetivos, organización, incidencias y desarrollo de la expedición, siempre con la tendencia de comparar este viaje con el realizado y organizado por Alejandro Malaspina en 1789. Se repasan los antecedentes y circunstancias del entorno político - social del siglo XVVIII para entender de una manera más adecuada, desde un punto de vista histórico, la ruta marítima emprendida por Malaspina y José Bustamante, así como el estado y evolución de los conocimientos y técnicas de navegación de la época y se describen las condiciones y características que rodeaban los viajes en barco de esta envergadura. El recuerdo e importancia del viaje de Malaspina queda plasmado en los actos conmemorativos celebrados y en distintas representaciones simbólicas presentes en América y filipinas. A modo de hitos actuales de la navegación en el programa tienen cabida acontecimientos como la regata 'copa América', el buque escuela español 'Juan Sebastián de Elcano' y la formación de guardia marinas que se sigue en el mismo, el velero italiano 'Il moro di Venezia' y la regata 'colon 92' (la mayor concentración de barcos veleros de nuestro siglo). Al final del programa se asiste a la salida de la expedición del puerto de Cádiz (cap.) para, tras cruzar el océano atlántico, llegar a Montevideo (Uruguay).Siguiendo el itinerario, y de una manera simbólica el espíritu y contenido de la expedición marina que Alejandro Malaspina dirigió en el siglo XVIII, el equipo de la serie parte de Montevideo (Uruguay), hacia tierras de argentina, recalando especialmente en la pampa, donde ha surgido el mito de la riqueza argentina, y en la figura de los gauchos sus más caracterizados moradores. Posteriormente se obtienen planos de la fauna marina en la península de Valdés (argentina), principalmente de la reserva marina de ballenas francas y se penetra en el interior de la Patagonia, para acercarse a los vestigios de la cultura tehuelche. Luego se filma el espectáculo natural del glaciar perito moreno (argentina) y los expedicionarios se dirigen a las islas Malvinas o islas Falkland (territorio de Gran Bretaña en América del sur) donde los restos recientes y los recuerdos de la guerra de las Malvinas del año 1982 aún perduran. Para finalizar el programa se navegan las dos rutas que existen para alcanzar el océano pacifico desde el océano atlántico: primero por el estrecho de Magallanes (Chile) atravesando la tierra del fuego (Argentina), que se realizo a bordo del buque oceanográfico español 'hespérides' y desde donde submarinistas efectuaron inmersiones en busca de un navío hundido a finales del siglo XVIII y segundo doblando el cabo de hornos (Chile), uno de los puntos mas difíciles para la navegación, a bordo de un velero guiado por expertos marinos.
