Goose Green memorial

A while ago I was speaking to an elderly guy at his home near to where I live in Whitley Bay. He had a photo of a Parachute Regiment officer on his sideboard which I asked him about. He very calmly and proudly told me about his son Captain Chris Dent, A Company, 2 Para who was killed at Goose Green trying to gain momentum in the attack for his battalion. Chris is buried at San Carlos and his family have a memorial just outside their home, one of the seventeen from the battle of Goose Green.
