Major General Sir Jeremy Moore  KCB OBE MC
For a brief moment in the summer of 1982, Major General Sir Jeremy Moore became the most famous military commander in Britain. The text of his telegram to London after he accepted the Argentinian surrender at the end of the Falklands war - "The Falkland Islands are once more under the government desired by their inhabitants; God save the Queen" - made headlines around the world, along with pictures of his youthful, muddied face greeting liberated islanders on a night-time walkabout in the islands' capital, Port Stanley.

As commander, land forces, Falkland Islands, Moore was the figurehead officer in charge at that final stage of the campaign. It was his job to coax the Argentinian commander, General Mario Menéndez, into signing the surrender document on June 14 - and he retained a flash of his irreverent spirit even while doing so. The British government had insisted that Menéndez accept an "unconditional" surrender, but Moore realised that such wording could offend the Argentinian sense of honour and jeopardise the peace. So he discreetly let the adjective slip from the agreement.
