Summary: Film documenting the funeral of Primer Teniente Miguel Angel Gimenez of III Brigada Aerea, Fuerza Aerea Argentina (Argentinean Air Force). Teniente Gimenez was killed in the Falkland Islands on 28th May 1982, shortly after scoring the only Argentinean air-to-air victory of the war against a British Scout helicopter, when his IA-58 Pucara aircraft crashed into Blue Mountain in poor visibility. His body was located and recovered from the mountain in 1986, and his relatives, shown at the graveside, were the first Argentinean nationals to visit the Falklands since the war.
