Raid on Pebble Island
The Raid on Pebble Island took place on 14–15 May 1982 during the Falklands War. Pebble Island is one of the smaller Falkland Islands, lying north of West Falkland.
==Background==
Immediately after the Argentinians had seized the Falkland Islands they established a small airbase, Aeródromo Auxiliar Calderón,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=''El ataque al Aeródromo Auxiliar Calderón'' (Spanish) at the Argentine Air Force website ))〕 on Pebble Island (Argentine name: isla Borbón) using the local airstrip on which were based FMA IA 58 Pucará light ground attack aircraft and some T-34 Mentors. Reconnaissance by these aircraft could have compromised the Royal Navy's manoeuvres before its intended landing on East Falkland.
Special Air Service ("SAS") elements, then embarked on HMS ''Hermes'', were tasked with eliminating the threat, with naval support from the Type 22 frigate HMS ''Broadsword'' as ''Hermes'' defensive escort and the County class destroyer HMS ''Glamorgan'' to provide naval gunfire support with its Mark 6 4.5 inch gun. The Naval Gunfire Support Forward Observer (NGSFO) who was responsible for co-ordinating the naval gunfire support was Captain Chris Brown RA of 148 Battery 29 Commando Regiment Royal Artillery.
