Summary

Description
English: As seen in the Falkland Islands Museum in Stanley, an edict issued by the Argentine Military Government on the Falkland Islands during the 1982 occupation warning the Islanders against attempts to sabotage Argentine military equipment. The edict reads: "Puerto Argentino 31-5-82. A serious incident occurred recently during wich [sic] a vehicle requisitioned by Argentine Forces was damaged by a civilian. The civilian population of Puerto Argentino (ex-Stanley) are reminded that the Military Government will protect and respect them in every possible way as established by the Geneva Convention. However the Military Government also wants to make it perfectly clear that any transgressions to the issued edicts or any act of disturbance will cause the application of severe measures accordingly and also contemplated by the Military Law. Signed The Military Government"
