Altre informazioni:
Grave stone of Lt Col Herbert 'H' Jones VC OBE, 2nd Battalion, The Parachute Regiment in the British War Cemetery at San Carlos on East Falkland in the Falkland Islands. Lt Col Jones was killed aged 42 on 28 May 1982 leading an assault on an Argentine position at Darwin Settlement during the battle for Goose Green. He was posthumously awarded the Victoria Cross (VC) for his gallantry, leadership and courage throughout the battle. The capture of Goose Green by the heavily outnumbered 2Para was to prove a turning point in political terms and the morale of the Argentinian forces in the Battle to recover the Falkland Islands for the British inhabitants. The grave stone contains the quote 'it is not the beginning but the continuing of the same unto the end'.
