Tickets still on sale for Falklands talk

TICKETS are still available for a charity evening where a Falklands War veteran will speak about his wartime experiences.

Kevin Porter, then a young tactical radio operator, kept a journal during the conflict which has been turned into a book.

Fearless – the Diary of an 18-year-old at War in the Falklands, charts his experiences during the war and afterwards, when he struggled to come to terms with what he had been through.
