The Battle of Mount Kent was a series of engagements during the Falklands War, primarily between British and Argentine special forces.
Mount Kent and the surrounding hills is an area of high ground on East Falkland, five miles West of the capital Stanley. At 1,093 ft (333 m) [2] it dominated the British axis of advance from San Carlos to Stanley and its proximity to the capital, made it of strategic interest to both British and Argentinian Forces.
