Around the forces world in Seven Days on BFBS Radio Two - this week with Bob Jones.

In this edition we focus on the commemorations of the end of the conflict in the Falklands 25 year ago. We hear messages from the Queen and Margaret Thatcher - look behind the political manouevres of the time - and hear a first hand account of one of the bloodiest battles of the campaign. 

Also - Bob Monkhouse dispenses health advice from beyond the grave, and the campaign to being back nose-paintings on British military aircraft.
