A forensic study recently identified the remains of 90 Argentine soldiers buried in a Falkland Islands cemetery after the war. Their mothers and fathers were not on the island and I was the only one who could look after them,” Cardozo told The Associated Press. On Friday, the families of the soldiers and Argentine officials paid homage to Cardozo at an emotional ceremony in Buenos Aires. “Today, I feel a great joy, a great tranquility,” Cardozo told the relatives as they broke into tears. In all, 649 Argentines and 255 British soldiers died in the war.
