Pebble Island Extraction


This painting by Charles David Cobb shows the SAS team being extracted from Pebble Island after destroying or putting out of action all the Pucara planes there. There had been a garrison of several hundred Argentines, but the SAS team had not been spotted until after the explosions had done their damage.
