The Argentine answer was that that the National Government allowed to the British to bury all the Argentine deads in an unique cemetery. By that time the Argentine soldiers were buried in different places.So British decided to build it, but far enough from Argentine Port (maybe you know this city as Stanley) in order to not "disturb" the main population of the islands, so the place choosen was Darwin. And this village became famous between the other of the islands just because the existance of this cemetery. A lot of turists or travellers started to mark Darwin as a visit point, what was really difficult before the war.<img src="http://www.bbc.co.uk/spanish/especiales/0203malvinas_galeria/images/guiacementerio.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://ar.geocities.com/rgveteranos/cementerio_darwin_1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />In 1998 the Comision of the Argentine killed in action familiars informed the restoration of the cemetery and the improvement of its instalations, and building a mural to bring honour to the KIAs. The British answer was firm: They would allow the improvement of the cemetery, but there wouldn't be any flag, any patriotic phrase or anything like that. So in the mural only appear the names of the killed in action, and the phrase "The Argentine Nation, in memorial to the Argentine soldiers who died in action in 1982". The center of the mural finally finished empty, because the islanders didn’t allow to the statue of Saint Mary of Lujan, the Argentine patron Saint, because its clothes were skyblue and white (a totally stupid obsession). Besides the mural, the improvement and restoration plan included the changing of the crosses and the plaques (now written in spanish, not in english), the newer ones made with Argentine wood and stone. <img src="http://www.tlaxcala.es/images/gal_1622.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://www.geocities.com/Pentagon/Barracks/4333/ftumdw4.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://ar.geocities.com/rgveteranos/12.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
