Malvinas War veteran commemorations and institutional steps

Overview

Malvinas War veterans continue various commemorative and educational activities to preserve historical memory. In Santa Rosa, naval aviator Owen Guillermo Crippa, recipient of the ‘Cruz al Heroico Valor de Combate’, held a talk at the Municipal Center of Culture to emphasize transmitting war experiences to the youth. In Reconquista, retired Commodore Carlos Horacio Argente is scheduled to present his book, ‘Dos guerras, dos aviadores’, which details the logistics of the Pucará aero-mobile squadron.

Educational outreach remains a priority, exemplified by the Tigre Deliberative Council’s ‘Malvinas nos Une’ workshop series. The program features retired Captain Bernardo Schweiser, who shared personal accounts of 1982 military operations with students to ensure the history of the conflict is passed down through direct testimony.

On an institutional level, Vice-Chief of the Cabinet Gustavo Coria signed Resolution 120/2026, calling for an assembly of provincial representatives of Malvinas War veterans in Buenos Aires on October 29, 2026.

Recent activities include a delegation of veterans, including Air Force veteran Ariel Sorbello, visiting Río Gallegos and the Malvinas Islands to honor fallen soldiers and combat historical neglect. Additionally, the Argentine Senate hosted a ceremony led by Vice President Victoria Villarruel to present the book ‘¡Sí, juro!’, authored by retired Chief Petty Officer Jorge Alberto Pacheco. During this event, several individuals received ‘Gesta de Malvinas’ honorary mentions, and veteran Ramón Garcés was awarded the COMUNAS Prize for his commitment to national sovereignty.
