FALKLANDS WAR between Argentina and the United Kingdom: Telegram sent to Buenos Aires on 8/MAY/1982 with text in English "ALL WELL HERE HOPE THE SAME WITH YOU", probably sent by an islander during the war. Very rare, few telegrams sent during this period are known, and this is the first one I have seen that was not sent by an Argentine soldier!

FALKLANDS WAR between Argentina and the United Kingdom: Front of cover sent STAMPLESS by express mail from Santa Fe to "Aircraft carrier 25 de Mayo, Malvinas Islands" on 26/AP/1982, returned to sender on 6/JUN, datestamped "9409 ISLAS MALVINAS - REPUBLICA ARGENTINA", extremely rare! There are few recorded letters that were returned to sender. It is well known that, because the Argentine navy commanders feared the threat posed by the submarine Conqueror to their warships, the Argentine fleet virtually did not leave the ports during most of the hostilities. It is possible that the addressee of this letter was transfered from the aircraft carrier to some other location in the islands, so that the letter had to be returned to sender few days before the surrender of the Argentine troops.

Lot 681 - malvinas/falkland islands postal history - Guillermo Jalil - Philatino Auction #75 - GENERAL AUCTION of worldwide stamps, covers and lots, and a nice selection of Argentina

Cover sent from USA on 16/JUN/1982 (2 days after the end of the Argentina-Great Britain war over the sovereignty of the Falkland Islands) to the "Postmaster, Port Stanley, Falkland Islands", and as it was usual BEFORE the conflict, the cover was sent by the US postal service to Buenos Aires to be redirected to its final destination. Upon arrival in Argentina (it shows the typical phosphorescent marks of the automatic sorting machines used at the time), a mail clerk crossed out the English names and wrote "Puerto Argentino - Islas Malvinas - Argentina", he also crossed out the American postage and postmark (possibly expressing his anti-American feeling given the help of that country to Great Britain during the war), and finally the cover received a very rare rectangular marking in black with a long inscription: "BUENOS AIRES (C.P.I.) ARGENTINA – RETURNED TO DISPATCHER – Postal exchanges with the Falklands Islands, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands are interrupted due to the illegitimate occupation by Great Britain of these islands, which are part of the Republic of Argentina and belong to its sovereignty." Extremely rare example of the consequences to the postal communications with the islands that arose after the war, until new routes were established away from Argentina. A rare piece for a great collection!
